Hacking a 3-phase treadmill, with a DSO138
Upshot: I salvage a few custom-build VFD's off of commercial grade treadmills, and figure out how to repurpose them for the shop.

These VFD boards are Digital Concepts ACD1U's, which were paired with DGE1U's upper displays, sometime circa 2004 on a number of different Star Trac brand treadmills. Using a DSO138 oscillocsope, I was able to cobble together a proof of concept for replacing that display with a simple Arduino - something much better suited for a shop environment.

GitHub files, etc. are forthcoming. If it's been more than a week since posting and you're looking for them, then bug me in the comments. I got a lot of stuff to do, and things sometimes slip my mind.

Upshot: Road rash sucks, but this stuff makes it suck less. Topic Index: 00:00 - intro 02:50 - supplies, what to use when 06:12 - cleaning up and shaving 08:37 - nonstick pads and self-amalgamating tape 09:00 - sterile vs clean 09:45 - Neosporin 10:27 - more self-amalgamating tape 11:42 - showering and working out is ok 12:22 - light road rash, applying Tegaderm 15:10 - roll vs patches 17:10 - results 2mo later, UV/sunlight, removing Tegaderm 21:05 - closing Tegaderm is a hydrocolloid bandage by 3M that works wonders on road rash. It doesn't heal fast, but it does heal well, with minimal/no scarring, and without interfering with your ability to keep riding. I know it's also pretty popular in burn units and tattoo parlors - basically anywhere you've got large amounts of superficial skin damage. I'm a total klutz, so I'm a big fan. You also want some non-stick pads, self-amalgamating tape, bacitracin/Neosporin, buzzers, tweezers, and something to protect the healing wound from UV/sunlight. Get well soon, mate.

lbry://@swolebro/compressor-pro-tip-1-easy-air-pig
Upshot: It's almost like running your pancake air compressor off 220 volt power. Now, why would I take a perfectly good $100 air compressor and treat it like it's a $30 Harbor Freight air tank? Well, because I already had one of these and because it remains useful as a standalone compressor too. There's possibly some way to run both your shop compressor and pancake compressor simultaneously too (to increase the overall amount of air flow you can get), but that depends on what the cut in and cut out pressures of your compressors are. For my applications, I don't need that anyway, since my shop compressor is large enough. Here's a playlist for all my air compressor hacks: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9xPdBFt5g3STOmBoEqXFtSRQTcg7iQAY Help me make more cool shit: http://paypal.me/swolebroshopworks ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYMU21chUEI

Upshot: I clean up shop. Printable object files here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3277907 (Ridgid brand 1.875") https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3324089 (Ridgid brand 2.5") https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3324066 (Dustless brand 2.5") The XS, S, M, L, XL files are variants with different levels of clearance (in 0.015" increments) for the tapers so you can get a snug fit. The mediums are what worked for me. Your printer/settings/filament combo may print differently, so if you want to do a test before committing to a long-ass print, there's some files that only include the tapers. Alternatively, if the taper comes out too tight, just bust out the sandpaper, and if it's too loose, you can apply thin coats of super glue and baking soda (acts as a hardening catalyst) as necessary to fill in the gap. Source code here: https://github.com/swolebro/caddyshack Perma-link to the source code when this video was published: https://github.com/swolebro/caddyshack/tree/938b72316602eeefaa4366efd87d541c0e716f01/scripts/shop The baffle should be about 11.5" in diameter prior to cutting the slots - I mentioned needing to look that value up in the video. To be clear, that baffle is made of HARD-board (aka. Masonite, tempered board, HDF, etc.), not cardboard. Cardboard won't hold up so well. lol One tip, if you want a larger collector but don't want to deal with the CAD to make the adapters fit your barrel/trashcan... Just use the 5 gallon bucket, and cut the bottom out. Then cut a hole of the same size in the lid of your trash can. Put one and two together. Problem solved.

Upshot: Talking through some decisions/difficulties with placing and squaring this thing. Topic index: 00:00 - Intro, placement, ventilation, space restrictions 02:57 - Building & bolting the trusses, adjustments for the axes 06:45 - Squaring & shimming If you have the same problem with grinding out slots, I now know the solution: carbide die grinder burrs. I had used stone grinders and Dremel-type cutters with my die grinder before, but it nowadays they make very affordable carbide burrs that will eat right through the nitride edge left by the plasma cutter. Highly recommend. The funny angle measurements ended up being the square after all. A few days after posting this, I remembered you can check a square by scribing a line with it, flipping it, and scribing another (assuming the edge you butt the square up against is straight). The more the two lines diverge, the more out of whack your square is. Mine came in a hair under 90, which explains how each corner was wider than that. The limitation of only being able to cut 3ft along the gantry/Y axis comes the width of the carriage rollers themselves, bringing in the X axes to align them, etc. It's safe to say that your cutting area will be about a foot less in each direction than your machine's footprint. This is also my first time testing out software video stabilization in ffmpeg, so hopefully that cuts back the Blair Witch effect of just being one dude with a camera phone. I did see one quirk where the video rotates suddenly, but overall looks like an improvement. I'll keep messing with the parameters, and at some point, will have to do a video about how I edit this stuff... on the command line. Do you even Linux, bro?
