I never thought I'd see this level of home shop in my lifetime. Whoduh thunk CAD PCB design, schematic capture, Electronics Spice and Wave Soldering at home! This generation is clueless . Hell!

For all you reflow newbies, you don't need all that fanciness. Putting it in a standard toaster oven without the high tech controls works just fine. The natural temperature profile of the toaster oven is pretty close -- close enough for most common uses. Just watch for the solder to melt, turn it off, and crack the door. If you have both large and small areas of copper, like 0603 pads and barrel connector pads (as seen in the video), you might want to do a little pre-heating, because the thinner sections will heat up faster than the sections with large masses of metal, which means some components could be damaged while waiting for the solder on large pads to melt. I set it on a coffee pot hot plate for a few minutes, with a paper towel between. You could also just use the toaster oven's thermostat on a mid-level setting, like 150-200 F. The materials really are not that picky. For the sake of comparison, I've seen people successfully use an electric griddle to reflow PCBs.

I gotta hand it to you. You are a bad ass. I was one of those kids who took apart all his parents electronics whenever they left the house & thought I'd go into electronics when I was 10 or so but as they say "life is what happens when you're busy making other plans" I found that I like tedious work but I like to work more with my hands so something like hand engraving came more naturally than muttering through all the math & study Other study it takes to learn electronics & programming. Probably a lack of patience, I'm guessing. I went to school for manual & CNC machining a while back & now I know that I'm just going to have to continue to force myself to learn those things if I want to make decent money because even though I prefer manual machining, it takes years to build up the experience & reputation it takes to make good money at manual machining. One thing that's been useful from learning electronic & computers though is that I'm the guy they turn to in the little shop I work in when things go wrong with electronic gadgets & such. It looks like you've learned it all though. (Figuratively speaking, of course) While I might be able to trouble-shoot and do basic repairs & build basic circuits, I certainly couldn't do what you've done here. I watched all previous videos in this series & I gotta say, I'm pretty impressed with your extensive knowledge base. I got into machining school from asking the local tech. school about building a cnc router & I had no idea about all the fields of study that would open up. I was kinda stagnating at the time. Keep'em coming. Great stuff!

I just finished bread boarding this project. It just worked. well my Clearpath servo had a inverted Enable. I am waiting for a better encoder to arrive. Very little wiring. The Workspace App was a little challenging at first. My spindle gears are on the inside in oil. Maybe I can add gears to the external spindle. I would like to get a "Through Hole" board. I won't be buying a reflow oven soon and the pads are too small to hand solder. Great Great work. I am thoroughly impressed. I have been impressed by very few on KZbin. I look forward to more projects. Thanks

Excellent ! Have this same idea to use for a mini lathe because it is annoying to have to play with gears to create threads or to vary the feed rate for different materials plus keeping sink with the main spindle and the lead screw. Most people go straight CNC which is fine but this idea allows you to do quick manual machining without playing the gear game or programming to make something . CNC is great for runs of the same part but not for mixing parts to machine. So many people don't understand why you might want to do this but it is great if you ever ran a lathe with this ability. It reminds me of the ease that i can vary the main spindle without gears or pulleys to change speeds. This is the next step.

The kapton tape on the switches is also so the pick and place machine has a flat surface to pick it up with vacuum and stick it on the board. Lots of connectors that have holes in the shells have kapton squares on them too so the pick and place machine has something to move it around with and get a seal on the suction cup.

@LambertZero
@LambertZero 5 жыл бұрын
@Greg Ewing, there's a couple of things you could do. You could read the DRO scale if you have it. Or instead of disengaging the halfnut, you can push a button and tell the controller to stop threading, move the cross-slide away and then push another button and tell the controller to rapid-traverse the carriage away from the chuck, preparing for the next pass. That's just what I came up with off the top of my head. Either way would help running a metric thread to a shoulder on an imperial lathe.
@TheWireEDM
@TheWireEDM 5 жыл бұрын
@@LambertZero That would be easier as a full blown CNC. But, threading to a shoulder would be easy if the circuitry would have pause-input, so you can have a micro switch on the lathe ways and it would say 'stop' to the VFD. It will stop the lathe in less than a second if there is a breaking resistor installed.

I believe pretty strongly that commercial CAD tools are becoming straight up abusive in their license requirements/business models, and we need to promote the open source alternatives. But man, there are still a lot of legacy issues that can make it a massive pain in the ass to use. Some little stuff like the ancient plotter font, some puzzling stuff like the way it's impossible to type coordinates in when moving components, and lots of irritating stuff like the inverted y axis and bad layer management.

Trick with a camera: set up a 17" monitor on the table past where you are working, and watch what you are doing in the monitor. You just have to learn to look one place and reach someplace, else, which might take a while. My experience suggests that if you had used 0805 components on that board, soldering by hand with a hot air gun or iron would be fairly trivial, but 0603 and smaller is almost impossible to manage.

I do have some electronics experience, but I am not interested in getting a Ph.D. in the TI micro controller, programming it, etc, so I would need a pretty complete kit solution, or some kind of pre-assembled turn-key electronics package. Can you expound a bit as to your intentions here? Also, I'm sure my threading screw on my 1340 would need a larger stepper/servo, and wondering about all that - maybe another episode perhaps?

I really don't get why no one in the Maker world has caught on to KiCad for electronics design....it's free, completely open source, very full function (16 layer PCB's? You got it! 3d rendering? It's there. You name it, it's got it.), and it's good enough for the folks at CERN, who have taken over the development and maintenance of the software. The learning curve can be steep, but it can do ANYTHING you need. Impedance matched traces? Yup. Auto routing? Sure....ish. Automatic sanity checks? (No unconnected terminals you don't want, no overlapping traces, etc.) Absolutely. They've even been developing some sim add ons. Well worth the effort of learning.

You are such a professional designer. It is so much captivating to see you going through your thinking process. BY the way, what kit did you used for the reflow open? Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us. Regards, RJM

I thought seriously about doing one, but there are excellent step-by-step instructions on the manufacturer's web site, and I didn't want to delay this series any further. It's also nice sometimes to just make something without the cameras rolling. :)

James, I've been following along through the build and really like what you're doing here. Can I assume you'll be offering kits of some sort for sale in the future? Like you, I'd love to be able to eliminate changing gears on my lathe. I have an older 13x40 Enco that I suspect would be a good candidate for your kit. Either way, I'm really enjoying your process and knowledge here. Thanks!

Hi, again well done! amazing, I have read what you said about finishing the project and publishing! indeed it could just grow and be updated continuously if you let it! i totally see that, how about creating an interface, maybe serial , to allow the user to add on boards. maybe you could achieve the finished project with the designed functionality and then via the interface the user can modify the system to control the servo to stop at the end of a thread and to start at a certain chuck angle, just what i am thinking, darn sure you have many more ideas that could be implemented by add ons if the base board had a control input and output the counts from the encoder and scaling?

Thanks for your great work! Definitely want one for my lathe. Will there be a stop and return function for the carriage?

I'm just watching this series of yours to obtain a better understanding of how the TI booster boards work with the launchpad device. So, can you please correct me if I'm wrong? When you stack a booster pack on top of the booster headers on the launchpas board, only the header pins not occupied by the booster pack can be used as GPIO pins by the launchpad. Is this right? Or is it that even the occupied pins can be used as GPIO by the launchpad. For eg:- Each header has 20 pins, and suppose the booster only used 8 of those 20 pins. Does this mean that I can only use the remaining 12 pins from that specific header as GPIO pins through the booster pack stack, say to receive inputs and transmit outputs? Or does this mean that I can still use all the 20 pins of the same header through the booster pack? Thank you, and regards.

Well done, James! I have been watching this build and enjoying it thoroughly. Haven't had any intention to make one myself, fiddling with the change gears gives me a chance to do several 'sanity checks'. Had a question, tho... wondered if you have accidentally built in a nifty capability. Occasionally, on commercially made machine bearings, the oil groove is (forgetting the correct term here) is a spiral back and forth pattern (lissaduous?) and I am wondering if this is possible? Jim

James, would you mind posting the Gerber files for the board you designed or point me to them please? I have my Servo/stepper motor, TI board on the way, LED display coming and would like to get the board ordered and on the way. I plan to install this on an older 9 x 20 lathe I use daily.
