Stuff Michael Meeks is doing
|
|
This is my (in)activity log. You might like to visit my employer
Novell which is an amazing company, and also
Dell who in days of yore provided me with a
free laptop for Gnome development / conferences.
Also if you have the time to read this sort of stuff you could enlighten
yourself by going to Unraveling Wittgenstein's net or if
you are feeling objectionable perhaps here.

Mini lie-in, breakfast, lots of jigsaw puzzling action, then
watched the Muppets Treasure Island with the babes &
James & Kate; bacon sandwiches for lunch, and dropped them back
into Cambridge.
-
Home, prodded at the reprap for a while, got the extruder
wired up, and after prodding at my SCL and SDA pins, learned how simple the I2C
bus is really; neat.
-
Tea; while prodding away at the electronics, realised I was
getting smoke from the extruder, manually turned the stepper and got
my first working 1mm diameter extruded plastic. Apparently this is
what happens when the thermistor is not wired up to get temperature
feedback working properly (or something). Bed early.
In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my
own; mine, all mine ! and don't reflect the views of Novell, The
Lithuanian Gov't or Arnold Schwarzenegger. It's also important to
realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy.
Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences,
bio.
or fun.
