Ralph I am sure Richard will respond to his RELS system Thanks John
John, why is the RELS still pulled? Six months ago Egor said he had wanted his code to be open source.
I probably?need to ask Richard. I have not been to the Russian forum in a long time there might be new discussions.
Ralph
Ralph, what a darling you are. I do not need any financial help, I started this forum with knowledge of all the financial obligations,? and will continue with the help of "hello" posts from all my friends all over the world. You will notice that there should be NO advertisements or propagande when you click onto this forum. Try this with facebook twitter etc etc.
Again Ralph
?
John, we will help pay for the group.
If you want we can use my paypal account rhulslander g? mail.
Ralph
Will I am sorry that the total ELS and now RELS has been pulled from the digitalhobbyist forum. My latest RELS is so perfect?that I will never stray away. It is all down to Richard? UK to decide if he wants to reply. I very much doubt it and so we are in an impasse, He was the inventor, the guru. the absolute British lecky scientist and a fabulous machinist. Without his pure genius, then it's best to pull the digitalhobbyist plug and save me $150 per year I have it all, RELS, CNC 4 axis mill, 3D printing, so what more do I need.??? Certainly not armchair engineers. So sorry. John
I've been following this group for some time now and am looking for a ELS for my small lathe.
There was a post from John that he was finishing a few kits and making them available when completed.
I sent him a reply that I would like to have one and got a reply saying I would be on his list to get one when they were completed.
It's been some time now but have not gotten any word if they are done.
I want to install a two axis unit so I can do threading.
Does anyone know if the ELS units have completed?
?Thanks Will
Ralph,
I am going by John's original post, which said:
30 days of no posts even hello will drop you out.
Perhaps he will reconsider...

In any case, I will not send any "I'm still alive" messages. I have no problem if John kicks me out because of that, but he has to do that himself. In this case, he can do it right now and doesn't have to wait an extra 30 days despite this notice.??

I read the "30 day" thing as well.
I'm a lurker. I can't post anything meaningful because I'm not there yet. I'm slowly working through the long list of projects after making major life changes (retiring, farm changes, family health, grandkids).
I also am the owner of 21 groups ranging from 500 down to 2. I can tell you that 95% of the activities in a group are from less than 10% of the members. Everyone on the group gets what they want.

This was the first I had heard of the 30 day rule, and I agree with Charlie I would not like to see "Hello" posts most days.
Phill?

Is there a?
"30-day post or out" policy for Digital Hobbyists?
John had not replied to my post.
Ralph
John,
First, while I greatly respect you, your work, and your work ethic, everyone has different priorities on how they use their time here on this Earth. To say that any priorities not in line with yours are "all just excuses to me" fails to recognize that we are all responsible for making our own decisions.
Second, you and I have discussed lurkers and the large percentage of members in every group that do not post regularly. These members derive a great deal of benefit just from reading the posts and discussions and should remain members. I belong to numerous groups, and have learned much simply by lurking. I don't have time to keep a schedule of when I must post to each to remain a member! I also don't want to receive a daily messages from Digital Hobbyist consisting primarily of "Hi", "Hello", "Howdy", etc. I disagree strongly with this "30-day post or out" policy, and, confirming my earlier email to you, I therefore resign as a moderator for Digital Hobbyist.

Look for "reference mark every 50mm" or "quadrature with index" and an R pin?on the connector pin out. When I bought my scales the documentation showed a 'R' pin but I hadn't known enough to order that option. (The ebay seller had something in the listing about letting them know if you wanted the 'R' option.)

I have silently been a member of this
group (never before today commented) because I can not contribute
or even comment intelligently due to being 2" from being homeless
due to a large tree and unscrupulous contractor.
I had hoped to be able to continue to
try to learn something new from this group, but if I must be cut,
so be it, you are the boss.
Good luck with your decision(s).

Sorry to disagree with? the last various past posts, and may I be
pertinent to say they are excuses not to start a project and
finish with it.
Call it perfection, or call it procrastination.it's all your call.
Just excuses to me,?
I am sure a lot of? hobbyists read HSM or DM which are under the
very excellent control of G Bullis,? but it is a always a question
of
when to get out of the old rockin chair as the great Louis
Armstring sang and do something constructive,or heaven forbid even
be creative,
Then move?on and start on to another project. it could be a simple
fix such as grandads repair to a grass cutter (beware of any
dangers)?
or get into a serious construction of a model for example a 5 year
build of a steam engine, or simply tinkering (Tamara) l just love
it.
Tamara you are a breath of feminie fresh air. Thaniks.
It really does not matter what you do? providing you are having
fun with your hobbies. But enjoy.what you do, or else it can
become a chore,?
Maybe you have not set the correct goals to achieve, either by
inability or self confidence, or you are under a certain amont of
peer pressure?
or family commitments etc.Who cares but just enjoy what you do,
but after a a few hours amongst your tools, walk away and say YES
YES, done it.move on,
I started this forum 3 years ago,and it has been succesful with
many members supporting the digital technology, and of course we
will always get the
?percentage of armchair (the US call them aptly named LazyBoy)
engineers.but this forum will not accept BS? and I always? learn
more each day.
Any current members who feel this is not for them, please just
drop out. It saves me the drudgery of going through 260
members and deleting. 30 days of no posts even hello will drop you
out.
Comments, of course appreciated,
John Lindo
Owner.
