No planned workshops this saturday, as far as I am aware,
but I should be there for a few hours after lunch

I have a box full of random pieces of acrylic to throw at the CNC mill
if anyone wants to have a go at that (bring SVG or STL models to cut)

and i want to experiment with moving some of the furniture around, to
see if we can create some additional workspace, and leave a solder
station permanently set up.

We also really need to find a -cheap- source for sacrificial material
for the mill, roughly A5 and A4 pieces of mdf/ply/whatever, so that when
we cut through PCBs or Acrylic the bit has something to dig into other
than the hard metal work bed. 

Is someone able to investigate local wood suppliers and enquire about
offcuts, i'm just nowhere near swansea during office hours these days so
cant do it myself

I've just got the 28pin PIC32 which MicroMite.org use working.

This is the details (Linux fans only)

___
Now I used one of these USB to TTY converters:-
1P HOT SALE PL2303HX USB To RS232 TTL Auto Converter Adapter Controller
Module <http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111495072392>

which cost less than a quid delivered ,

If anyone is using Linux and gets to the CLI

and types

sudo apt-get install picocom

and once it has done that

types

picocom /dev/ttyusb0 -b 38400 -l   (now -l is really lowercase -L)

they can communicate with your brilliant PIC32 IC


to save the program and jump to the command mode control Q does the job

then RUN works and the code is saved.


To go back to the code type

Edit

_______________


Its all on page 10 of user manual Ver 4.5D


________________________


There are lots of red herrings hanging about such as minicom,


but that is the fix !

(and BSD ones.. after all you can run RetroBSD on the PIC32MX - and full
Linux in theory should run on the 32MZ with external RAM)

I'll be at my dad's this weekend and plan to see what scrap timber he has

Remind me of exact measurements when you get in.
I will be in on Monday night

thanks, do you want it the exact same size? Or shall I cut it a bit smaller
to facilitate clamping?

I've brought three pieces back with me, they are in the car and will bring
them Monday night.

They will need milling flat.

Hey guys, can't make it again tobight, poorly child.

Really wanted to see the cnc in action tonight, any chance the 3D printer webcam can be pointed at the cnc for tonight please?


No animals were harmed in the making of this email. However, several thousand electrons were severely inconvenienced.

About 15 mins each on 2.5mm acrylic, the one I did for Justin on 5mm 
took about twice the time.

Message-ID: <1418163737.5284.6.camel@emerald.geode.org.uk>

My order of ESP8266 modules just arrived, and they are tiny!

I bought some with the intention of being able to easily and cheaply
(they are ?2 each) add wifi to an arduino, but they are so much more.

Seems that in order to do its serial-wifi trick they embedded a cpu, an
80MHz 32bit cpu! And the manufacturer has just released a new version of
the SDK, gcc tool chain, libraries and RTOS operating system for it.

The board takes 3.3v power and has UART and two GPIO (SPI, I2C, PWM
capable) pins.

wow, talk about internet of things, you could connect a sensor and a
small battery and make really small wireless sensors.

Latest SDK:
https://github.com/espressif/esp_iot_rtos_sdk 

Definitely one for a future workshop i think.

Seems to have quite a lot of RAM too but looks like its one of those crap
architectures where data and code are divided 8) Fortunately it seems the
version on that board has 32K of instruction RAM and something like 80K
of data RAM. On top of that there's a ton of what looks to be mostly
reprogrammable flash memory

https://github.com/esp8266

has a ton of funky stuff for it - and it looks like it can actually do
160MHz if you aren't power constrained

http://0x04.net/~mwk/doc/xtensa.pdf

is the instruction set stuff.

Pity it doesn't have mapping tlb support, it would almost be a useful
system if it did. As it is it might be a bit tricky to get Unix on it 8-)

I was reading the lasted Hackaday blog on these last night

http://hackaday.com/2014/12/08/compiling-your-own-programs-for-the-esp8266/

at the foot of the page there is a new link to an easier toolchain than the
one mentioned in the bulk of the blog post

so, at least three toolchains already if not more... It would be
interesting to know which is the easiest.

Hi All,


Spark.io (November 2014)
************************
Before everyone goes dark for Christmas;  Please can I have your project
links w.r.t the Spark cores, the d/line is the end of this month.

In the unlikely event anyone is interested my 'WeerLicht' 
is on picopixie.imgur.com

Makey Makey (January 2015)
**************************
I've just rx'd notification of a successful application for this.
So, just to give you all some thinking-time;  This Build Night will
take place sometime in January (exact date TBA).

Message-ID: <20141210235742.56f0c10c@picobox.apathetic.discordia.org.uk>

I'm thinking of scheduling regular workshops to start in the new year,
so folk can get more from their membership and learn (a) new skill(s).

e.g How do people feel about every third Thursday of
the month being "sewing/textile craft night".? 

Does anybody have any suggestions for 'shops/tutorials.?

Is there anything you'd like to learn, is there something you could
teach/share.?

I got nowhere with it, I found the whole experience to be far too
frustrating and difficult.

I am pleased to see the results managed by others.

I'm sorry I didn't have the time to put into it to make some of my ideas
work.

Sorry

A sturdy X/Y mechanism
a high voltage laser psu
stepper motors and driver board
water circulation pump
set of the mirrors and focussing head
honeycomb cutting bed
air pump for the cutting head
air vent pump for the box ventillation
and most important of all a big metal LIGHT PROOF box to keep it all in.

building your own works only if you are building a toy 1W one that cuts
paper, or you are building a really big one and have a metalwork shop to
fabricate it with.

You did however correctly identify the type of tube we would need to buy
at regular intervals when they burn out, cheap ones claim a life of 1000
hours, but can often be much less.

?110 is roughly the bottom end of the market from what i've seen,
although i was pushing for the 50W version for our starter machine

if we ask our members to pay ?1 per laser burn hour for the use of the
machine then we should more than cover the cost of
repairs/replacement/upkeep of the machine!

Other hackspaces have suggested that a suitable rate is ?5 an hour by
the time you cover all the costs involved, the mirrors do gradually
degenerate as well as the laser tube and other parts.

but then, unlike the 3d printer, a job should take minutes not hours.

I was thinking that jobs would probably be in the order of mins. So yes, ?5
sounds reasonable to me.

Unless I don't have much change on me I always chuck a minimum of a quid
into the pot for suing the 3d printer.

I am sure everybody else must do the same.

You won't get a beer for less than ?3 in most places now, a quid for just
over 10 mins fun on a laser cutter would be a bargain!

From hello at spark.io  Wed Dec 17 20:12:40 2014

Subject: [Swansea Hackspace] Spark: Photon update and fun projects
Message-ID: <cm.071240.juhukdd.thvdtkhh.t@cmail2.com>

An update on the development of the Photon, and some great projects built with the Spark Core   No Images?  Click here http://spark.cmail2.com/t/t-e-juhukdd-thvdtkhh-h/                         Photons and Projects

Hello Spark Friends,

We're nearing the end to this eventful year and wanted to bring you one last update from Spark. This one is all about the Photon and some very cool projects that have been built recently using the Spark Core. Seriously, you guys are killing it!

Photon Update

It has now been a month since we launched the Photon and we're excited to report that nearly 7,500 have already been pre-ordered. We're on track to sell out of our first manufacturing run in early 2015. We'll be lining up a second manufacturing run after the first 10,000 Photons have been sold; the second run will probably ship a month later than the first, so if you and your friends want Photons in March,  order now [http://store.spark.io/?utm_source=NewsletterDec&utm_medium=Email&utm_campaign=PreOrder]!

Pre-order a Photon [http://store.spark.io/?utm_source=NewsletterDec&utm_medium=Email&utm_campaign=PreOrder]

Development on the Photon has continued in preparation for March delivery. We've been making some improvements to the hardware to make the Photon easier to use and more versatile. Here are some of the changes we've made:

Castellated Edges: Unlike our previous development kit, the Spark Core, the Photon does not have any components on the back side. In addition, the Photon will now have "castellated edges", which are copper-plated holes along the edge of the board. This means that in addition to putting the Photon in a breadboard, you can mount it on a PCB either by hand soldering or reflowing the board. The Photon is available on our store "without headers", which is the best choice if you want to mount the Photon permanently onto another circuit board.Chip antenna and u.FL connector: The Spark Core came in either a "chip antenna" version, which has the antenna on board, or a "u.FL connector" version, which lets you use an external antenna. The Photon will have both a chip antenna and a u.FL connector on every board, and you'll be able to switch between the two options in software.Other improvements: We've switched to a smaller LED (less blinding), put D7 and the LED connected to it right next to each other (less confusing), and have made the board prettier all around (less ugly).               WarSting: Vanquish Unsecure Wi-Fi networks

Today the new Hobbit movie hits the theaters, and to celebrate its release, we made our own version of Sting! Except instead of turning blue near orcs, it turns blue near unsecured Wi-Fi networks.

Visit our blog to learn how to make your own, and watch a video that features an extremely makeshift Gandalf costume.

View Project [http://blog.spark.io/2014/12/17/warsting-a-wifi-scanning-sword-for-hobbits/]                L3D Cube: a connected LED cube

Check out the latest Spark-powered project on Kickstarter: the L3D cube, a connected 3D LED cube!

Their project is 400% funded ($160K raised to date), with 19 days left. Get yours today!

See it on Kickstarter [https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/lookingglass/l3d-cube-the-3d-led-cube-from-the-future]

It's been a tremendous 2014 for Spark, but with what we have planned, we're hopeful that 2015 will be even better, with new features, new integrations, new tutorials, new products and more.

Hi Ceri,

I don't use any of those services but I do run Ubuntu.  I signed up for 
a Netflix free trial and selected Breaking Bad Season 1 - it's playing 
just fine.

I am using Chrome, which has a flash-compatible video decoder built in.  
Try browsing to the Chrome website, download the Linux version, and install.

Note: I'm talking about the official Chrome browser you can obtain from 
the Google website, not Chromium.

Let me know how you get on.

Cheers,

Broan

Well, the only trouble I've ever had playing online video is the fact 
that Adobe discontinued Flash for Linux quite some time ago. You can 
still install an old version of Flash for Firefox but in my experience 
it has very poor performance.

This problem completely goes away if you use the Linux version of the 
official Chrome browser, which has a much more modern Flash compatible 
decoder built into it.  I am playing Netflix videos using it with no 
problems, so should be fine your end too :)

Cheers,

Brian.

Dear Ceri,

Not sure about your specific problem,
but a few days ago Iplayer running on
Firefox on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS refused to
play - didn't like my version of Flash.

So I clicked on the green "A" and was
told there were 495 MB of updates waiting.
Clicked on "install" and seems to be OK now.

Hope that is of some use.

regards

Dr. Tim

Netflix might work with flash, Amazon prime works only with a few
selected by Amazon devices and some TV sets (most Samsung tvs these
days prime is built in)

Unfortunately I'm in Cardiff this evening otherwise I would have enjoyed a
visit to see everyone's new Christmas gadgets :-)

Am relegated to webcam-ing voyeurism on a Monday night these days.... :-(

Have a good one and enjoy the heat!!

Blwyddyn Newydd Dda!
