I HOPE to make it, also.  We have some physics experiments 
right near that time, and the exact dates have not been 
nailed down.  I did tell them about the CNC Workshop, and 
they are trying to work around those dates.
But, I may not know positively for a few more weeks.

Is that going to happen again this year?I have heard nothing about it.

I have a lot of connections to Ford Dearborn.   When I was a little kid 
(like 6) I took swimming lessons at Greenfield Village.
Ford used to have a large indoor swimming pool there.If you go 
there, you need to go east on Warren and hit the Arab bakeries.
Some of the food is really good.I can supply further 
recommendations.  :-)

Hi Jim and others:

http://www.thecncworkshop.com/

I found that each and every one of the attendees and exhibitors and vendors
were down to earth, nice people. It was a pleasure to be there. Techshop
Detroit was very accommodating.

Ron Ginger was also a pleasure to meet in person.

I did have my machine-kit driven CNC lathe there last year, which drew a
bit of interest. This year they do have a CNC lathe build, but IIRC the
interface used is one of those expensive, Mach-only ones. (Ron - pardon me
for rooting for the LinuxCNC vendors!)

It would have been interesting to use a pico or mesa interface and show
LinuxCNC also running on the build-lathe - but it will not be me doing it
this year.

I might be able to go. What is the link to the event webpage just to 
make sure we are talking about the same event.

2016-04-13 Thread Nicklas Karlsson
I brought up the idea about splitting user interface and real time parts and 
there actually are NML communication between these today, maybe a little bit 
broken but not to much.

I am also working at moving position control from linuxcnc to stepper generator 
for steppers. Then it should be possible with a receive fifo which reduce real 
time demand and in particular network traffic for feed back loops. It will also 
be possible to broadcast all positions in one network packet to several 
receiving nodes.

Both of them are only about deployment.

[Emc-users] CNC Workshop - we need LinuxCNC/MachineKit talks.

2016-04-13 Thread John Alexander Stewart
Hi all;

Last June, I attended the CNC Workshop in Dearborn Michigan, and gave two
talks on LinuxCNC.

(I have the notes up at cnc-for-model-engineers.blogspot.com if you want to
see what I presented)

It was a good time, with great people. It was worth the 8 hour each way
drive.

This year, I'm in the midst of contract negotiations, and am unsure whether
I'll be able to take time off, so I can not commit.

Can someone (or, a group) go and present something on LinuxCNC and/or
PathPilot and/or MachineKit?

Even if someone takes my slides and presents them again, but with their own
experience wound in, it might be a start.

The audience was small, so the presentation was intimate, and almost
one-on-one, which was great IMHO.

FYI - I really enjoyed Dearborn, the Henry Ford Museum, and the Greenfield
Village, which is right around the corner from the CNC meeting. I'd love to
go back this year, but can not commit at this time.

John.
