Faust · Post by **Faust** » Thu Dec 05, 2002 7:29 am

many thanks to all for the well-wishes, as well as those i may miss. as usual i got home from work at 3:00am after a joyous 12 hour shift (don't work 'em quite as often, but they are still somewhat regular), and it's time for bed.

peas!

lol.... thanks a bunch, guys. i managed to weasel my way out of work after only 8 hours *GASP!*. of course this means i will be going into work tomorrow 4 hours early and (most likely) a bit hung over.

spent a good amount of time today in the clean room working on the CMM (my favorite area to work in. very quiet. very clean. nobody bugging you. it's bliss, i tells ya). i will try to remember to bring my digicam into work tomorrow so you guys can see what i mean.

here's a pic of our CMM (from the mfgr's website)...

hey faust i bet you could make some kick butt water blocks with that huh ?

Faust · Post by **Faust** » Fri Dec 06, 2002 6:17 am

lol... well at least i could measure them. a CMM (Coordiante Measuring Machine) only checks the dimensions of an object rather than machining it.

our shop floor has a grip of crazy CNC machines (where inormally spend my workdays) which can make whatever you want as long as you have a program manually written or one written for you by CAM software. it's actually kind of a dirty environment (which is why i like working on the CMM in the clean room so much) with all the production machines and all.

i am essentially a machinist. i also am a CNC programmer. the only problem is, every CNC machine on the shop floor is either always being set up, or always running. and on top of that, i
can't afford to spend the time to machine stuff i have in my head. 15 minutes here..... 10 minutes there. not enough time to really make something. i still have 2 pieces of cast aluminum billet i prepped (all planes and angles are flat and true) for machining waterblocks. they have been in my tool cabinet for almost a year now. i just can;t find the time.

i swear.... when/if i retire (whenever that is), i am going to buy a decent vertial mill and an engine lathe. just so i can spend my last days making the stuff i always wanted to but never had the time.

(BTW, the snake, thanks for the B-Day thread

)

no worries, man!

CMMs are a VERY rare device. i doubt there are more than 3 people on theis board (if that) that even (actually) know what one is.

i really gotta take a pee.
