[2018-01-28 20:13:23 CET] that OK, Im sitting deaming here. [2018-01-28 20:13:44 CET] Im not very well today, got a virus anbd everything aches [2018-01-28 20:13:59 CET] thank you or the funny things you was sending to me. [2018-01-28 20:14:30 CET] good health [2018-01-28 20:14:45 CET] Ah you got them. They werent great quality. I founf the spool was slightly bigger and sat on the cross member, so it dragged the filament back [2018-01-28 20:15:08 CET] I printed a 6mm spacer and my prinbts are a lot bvetter nw [2018-01-28 20:15:22 CET] unlike my typing :) [2018-01-28 20:15:37 CET] how did you color the keys? [2018-01-28 20:15:47 CET] on spectrum? [2018-01-28 20:16:15 CET] The filiment was grey so I sprayed black and the scraped the paint off the tops on the Zeddy, [2018-01-28 20:16:34 CET] i see. [2018-01-28 20:16:36 CET] Sorry on the speccy, Zeddy just has a little keyboard printed and stuck on [2018-01-28 20:17:01 CET] Have you tried retro pi [2018-01-28 20:17:09 CET] the underside looks also realtic. [2018-01-28 20:17:27 CET] how did you manage that? [2018-01-28 20:17:29 CET] Yes, even more so if the print was bigger [2018-01-28 20:17:41 CET] Thingiverse, there is everything on there [2018-01-28 20:18:00 CET] Im printing Liz an articulate baby just npow. [2018-01-28 20:18:21 CET] Head and body should be finished after 26 hours, its at 96% [2018-01-28 20:18:24 CET] ii thought the underside has to be planar. [2018-01-28 20:19:14 CET] No, you can use supports which break off easily. Although I think I printed those with the back touching the build plate [2018-01-28 20:19:57 CET] does the spectrum consist of two pieces glued together? [2018-01-28 20:20:05 CET] No just one [2018-01-28 20:20:32 CET] i dont understand how it works. [2018-01-28 20:21:12 CET] The 3D model is sliced into .2mm slices. The printer just builds the model up in layers [2018-01-28 20:21:53 CET] I try to have the flatest side down on the base [2018-01-28 20:21:54 CET] but the underside has to be flat? [2018-01-28 20:22:32 CET] No, you can use supports which fill any area that isnt completely on the base [2018-01-28 20:22:48 CET] in the case of spectrum there are just tiny feets on the underside. [2018-01-28 20:23:02 CET] Supports just break off when done as they arent totally fused with the model [2018-01-28 20:23:52 CET] thanks lot for the small models. [2018-01-28 20:24:03 CET] Spectrum was printed with the PSU and edge connector flat on the base. The printer cant just print the feet as they touch the bottom [2018-01-28 20:24:08 CET] You are welcome [2018-01-28 20:24:17 CET] i was very busy this eek, the sme for the next days. [2018-01-28 20:24:28 CET] What are you doing? [2018-01-28 20:24:30 CET] no time to try the retro pi. [2018-01-28 20:24:35 CET] sorry. [2018-01-28 20:24:42 CET] No problem, we have too many toys [2018-01-28 20:24:56 CET] that right. [2018-01-28 20:25:11 CET] I'll send a picture of this print with the supports [2018-01-28 20:25:17 CET] do you know the if2 for spectrum? [2018-01-28 20:25:33 CET] Yes, got one. Have you got a cart for it/ [2018-01-28 20:25:56 CET] yes i have. [2018-01-28 20:26:05 CET] from fruitcake? [2018-01-28 20:26:10 CET] n [2018-01-28 20:26:13 CET] no. [2018-01-28 20:26:23 CET] look to he forum [2018-01-28 20:26:27 CET] OK, what rom are you putting on it? [2018-01-28 20:26:35 CET] Tielenhard? [2018-01-28 20:26:50 CET] spectrum->if2-rom cartridgs [2018-01-28 20:27:29 CET] Ok, I need to translate [2018-01-28 20:27:57 CET] look to the pics. [2018-01-28 20:28:44 CET] tokabln (torsten) has produced some pcb. [2018-01-28 20:28:44 CET] Yes, you are making one/ [2018-01-28 20:29:23 CET] i could send you one of it to build yor own rom. [2018-01-28 20:29:48 CET] designed for 512k*it eprom. [2018-01-28 20:29:56 CET] kbit [2018-01-28 20:30:05 CET] Im not having any success building just now [2018-01-28 20:30:20 CET] very easily. [2018-01-28 20:30:37 CET] Still cant get the ZX48 Max to work, just coloured squares. I think its the 14MHz crystal [2018-01-28 20:31:10 CET] The IF2 board does look an easy build. How much for one? [2018-01-28 20:31:14 CET] i dont kno that engine. [2018-01-28 20:31:24 CET] Is it limited to 16K per image? [2018-01-28 20:31:40 CET] it is for free for you. [2018-01-28 20:31:49 CET] Max 48K is a Harlequin with a CPLD instead of all the Loginc chips [2018-01-28 20:31:55 CET] Thanks [2018-01-28 20:32:05 CET] Make by superfo [2018-01-28 20:32:27 CET] He has made an Issue 2 with Joystick port and AY music chip [2018-01-28 20:33:09 CET] do you know somebody with a working zx48 max? [2018-01-28 20:33:25 CET] Yes guy called McKau [2018-01-28 20:33:51 CET] McKlaud? I wanted to try and get this working my self as I always seem to be asking for help [2018-01-28 20:34:10 CET] Maybe his name is Klaudius? [2018-01-28 20:34:29 CET] from england? [2018-01-28 20:34:46 CET] Yes, Colchester? [2018-01-28 20:35:23 CET] why do you assume a non working crystal? [2018-01-28 20:36:03 CET] well there are two - 4.43 which shows that when I use my meter. 14 shows 50 Hz [2018-01-28 20:36:36 CET] Although I did get it ro show 160 KHz before I stopped. My meter lead was acting up [2018-01-28 20:37:08 CET] I have changed crystals, will swap out transistors next. There was a cap in back to front [2018-01-28 20:37:23 CET] what kind of meter? oscillogrph? [2018-01-28 20:37:48 CET] No a DVM, it does frequency on one of its functions [2018-01-28 20:38:12 CET] use the oscilloograph. [2018-01-28 20:38:47 CET] I will but I didnt want to work in my shed. It is too cold and makes me feel sick just now [2018-01-28 20:38:54 CET] also to check the shape of the vibration. [2018-01-28 20:39:11 CET] ok. [2018-01-28 20:39:22 CET] lets stop for today. [2018-01-28 20:39:28 CET] The 4.3 is a sine. The 14 is also sine, but completely wrong frequence. [2018-01-28 20:39:40 CET] sin? [2018-01-28 20:39:54 CET] no maanderc [2018-01-28 20:39:57 CET] It uses a 74n04? 6 inverters? [2018-01-28 20:40:04 CET] meander [2018-01-28 20:40:18 CET] No and very low amplitude [2018-01-28 20:40:43 CET] than you shold check this first. [2018-01-28 20:41:02 CET] may be a wrong or forgotten capacity. [2018-01-28 20:41:45 CET] ok. [2018-01-28 20:41:52 CET] Yes, I'll replace. This was the last chip in the set from China. CPLD was dead, Eprom was dead, Z80? maybe dead but could be down to crystal [2018-01-28 20:42:04 CET] Ram same as new ones I bought [2018-01-28 20:42:07 CET] i wih ou good recover of your heallh. [2018-01-28 20:42:35 CET] So do I, I run to toilet every 15 minutes and its like passing glass [2018-01-28 20:42:54 CET] sounds not good. [2018-01-28 20:43:20 CET] No, I think everyone is getting flu/virus just now [2018-01-28 20:43:28 CET] A few days off work will help [2018-01-28 20:43:29 CET] next sunday i am not at home [2018-01-28 20:43:41 CET] OK, going anywhere nice/ [2018-01-28 20:44:03 CET] talking on febr 11th [2018-01-28 20:44:20 CET] bye [2018-01-28 20:44:23 CET] Bye [2018-01-28 20:44:28 CET] * rune quit (Leaving) [2018-01-28 20:44:39 CET] * heinz quit (EOT)
