Re: [Emc-users] a bit of New Year levity
Nerves grow back too. My brother severed the tip of his little finger and it was stitched back on. No feeling for a long time, but the nerves grew back eventually. That's probably cheaper than the Cut Away Spray, but not as instant. Mind you; lack of feeling in the little finger might be useful if you were doing karate chops. No need to worry if the brick you were hitting was a bit too hard. Then again - No Pain: No Gain (?)

All kidding aside there are cases of human regeneration of fingers but the age limit is something like 6-7 years old. D I'd like to point out that there is one other area where humans can regenerate, fairly effectively in my case up to nearly 40 years old. Teeth. The percentage in the population as a whole who have this trait is about 2/100,000 and I was one of them. I drank my coffee with cream sugar up until my mid 40's when I bit into a big mac and broke part of a tooth away. That was my wakeup call that I needed to start taking care of my teeth. When I was in my 20's, a curious dentist in Iowa City noted that it appeared that my cavities appeared to be rising on the side of the tooth in between semi-annual cleanings and offered to take a set of xrays every 6 months as part of a research project for a paper he was writing on the subject. A year later we had 3 sets of pix that confirmed my teeth were wearing away on top as expected but were growing from the bottom so that any cavities were actually carried to the top of the tooth before they could get deep enough to be a problem. When I was about 21 I got into a scrap one night and caught a wrench in the mouth that cleaned the 2 upper front teeth off level with the gum line. By the time I turned 23, they were almost back to normal height. And at 78YO, I still have them. Missing some molars though. FWIW, I did return the favor putting the wrench swinger in the shop for a long week. Since he had a wife two kids and wasn't drawing a check, I took his wife half my check so she could buy groceries two weeks in a row. His stupidity when full of 7 7 wasn't their fault according to my reasoning. Cheers, Gene -- There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.

Re: [Emc-users] a bit of New Year levity
That was great. It's great marketing too. I had been buying metal from a number of places but had somehow misplaced Online Metals, but after laughing at their joke products for metalworkers, I checked their prices and they looked easier to shop and/or cheaper than my other prototype and small run sources. Plastics, too. I'll give them a try next time I need to place an order, which will be soon. That bit of clever humor might lead to several hundred dollars in new business from me this year.

I'm positively giddy. The 1090 ounce inch NEMA 34 motors, motor drives, power supplies and optoisolated breakout board are all in state and FedEx says they'll be here Monday. I may buy a 24 X 48 X .25 thick or thicker aluminum top plate from Online Metals to go under the MDF spoil board, and some .25 polycarbonate sheets for the enclosure / dust collection / sound proofing.

Re: [Emc-users] Pid saturated, was: Servo error
2012/12/30 Viesturs Lācis viesturs.la...@gmail.com: What is left is the pid saturation as soon as I jog the motor. Acceleration is extremely low, pid parameters as well. I would appreciate any tips from where to start. Taking a small break on New Year apparently was needed. Unfortunately I have no idea why, but now I can jog all the motors back and forth. I did work out lead angle value for each motor to provide best max speed and then somehow also pid started to behave normally. Anyway, I would like to thank Peter once again for the patience and provided support! Now I have 2 another questions: 1) is it safe to test THCAD-10 card by providing input voltage from usual AA or AAA battery? I want to test, if I have configured the encoder module correctly and some other related stuff. 2) I created gladevcp panel for plasma signals and other stuff, but the thing is that all the buttons are inactive. I looked at gladevcp sample config and I saw that there is a signal for each table or h-box, in which widgets are placed in. And that these signals are connected either to e-stop loop or halui.machine-is-on or even permanently set true to link them to appropriate machine state, when they should be available to user. I find it very nice feature, so I did the same, but I somehow have managed to fail. In HalShow I see that those pins of tables or h-boxes, in which I have some buttons, are true, but buttons are not available.
