00:20:00 <ld0g> might grab some pasta
00:20:00 <ld0g> feeling a bit hungry
00:25:00 <electrohead> he keeps sending me channel invites
00:26:00 <Bonny> yes I know hence why he has been zlined
00:28:00 <electrohead> lol
18:26:00 <doggyrat> hello
20:15:00 <Bonny> hi doggyrat
20:16:00 <^bozojim> hello Bonny
20:16:00 <^bozojim> hi doggyrat
20:16:00 <Bonny> hey ^bozojim
20:16:00 <doggyrat> hello Bonny
20:16:00 <doggyrat> hello ^bozojim
20:16:00 <Bonny> doggyrat.. I lost 20 kilos
20:17:00 <doggyrat> Bonny: if you go one like that you will cause accidents walking outside
20:18:00 <doggyrat> men will turn around and be distracted
20:18:00 <Bonny> lol
20:18:00 <doggyrat> so the score is 0:20
20:18:00 <Bonny> I want to lose another 6 to 11 kilos
20:19:00 <doggyrat> take your time , give your body time to adapt
20:20:00 <Bonny> I'm not losing too quickly
20:20:00 <Bonny> like last 3 months I only lost 4 kilos
20:20:00 <^bozojim> yes
20:22:00 <doggyrat> i am about to design a bicycle tool for my neighbour
20:23:00 <doggyrat> he is buying , repairing and selling used bicycles
20:23:00 <Bonny> ok
20:23:00 <Bonny> so what tool are you making?
20:26:00 <doggyrat> therefor he need to adjust the bicycle rim by changing tension of the spokes
20:26:00 <Bonny> ok
20:26:00 <^bozojim> yes
20:26:00 <^bozojim> a spoke spanner
20:26:00 <^bozojim> or to put the rim on
20:26:00 <Bonny> you can buy them at the shops eh?
20:27:00 <^bozojim> yes
20:27:00 <Bonny> cool
20:27:00 <^bozojim> called a trurer for the wheel
20:27:00 <^bozojim> and a spoke spanner
20:27:00 <Bonny> ok cool
20:27:00 <^bozojim> wheel trurers have to be spot on firsrt time made
20:28:00 <Bonny> ok
20:28:00 <^bozojim> and spoke spanners have to be metal and strong as plastic break
20:28:00 <Bonny> ahhh ok
20:28:00 <Bonny> are they expensive to buy?
20:28:00 <doggyrat> it is just a 3D printed tool that helps him to compare the distance of the different parts of the rim
20:28:00 <^bozojim> spoke spanners not really
20:29:00 <Bonny> ok
20:29:00 <^bozojim> what are you trying to say doggyrat|
20:29:00 <^bozojim> as that does not make sense
20:29:00 <Bonny> brb
20:29:00 <^bozojim> as wheels are spun to true them,
20:30:00 <^bozojim> ok Bonny
20:30:00 <doggyrat> basically just to half circles that are fixed at the suspension, where he can fix a kind of screw
20:31:00 <^bozojim> mud flap?
20:31:00 <doggyrat> there where the rim has contact with the screw there is an imbalance
20:32:00 <^bozojim> I have no idea as that does not make sense
20:33:00 <^bozojim> rim slides into front forks and at the back is a slot in the framee
20:33:00 <^bozojim> then the brake shoes
20:33:00 <^bozojim> the only contact with the frame
20:33:00 <^bozojim> and the sheels are balanced to straight in forks and back bt adjustinf them on she forls and abck where the nuts are
20:34:00 <doggyrat> i have no clue about that i just saw him doing it last week
20:34:00 <^bozojim> suspension is independant of the wheels and on the frame itself
20:35:00 <^bozojim> hard tail or dual suspension
20:35:00 <^bozojim> whicj mostly are springs
20:36:00 <doggyrat> but the tool is fix at the suspension and the screw is long enough to touch the rim
20:36:00 <^bozojim> rims have nothing to do with suspension
20:36:00 <doggyrat> each time the rim touches the screw there is a kind of imbalance
20:36:00 <^bozojim> on the bike of a truing stand?
20:36:00 <^bozojim> or a
20:37:00 <^bozojim> as if it is on the bike it will never be accurate
20:38:00 <doggyrat> but that is the way he does it and for the price he is going to sell the bikes nobody can expect to have a wheel with perfect balance
20:39:00 <^bozojim> yes you can
20:39:00 <^bozojim> it is called a wheel truer
20:40:00 <^bozojim> most who know about bikes know about them as they are used a lot
20:41:00 <doggyrat> i just googled for it
20:43:00 <^bozojim> wait a minute
20:43:00 <^bozojim> you said you were designing it
20:43:00 <^bozojim> so one would assume you know what you are doing and not need to google
20:43:00 <doggyrat> i am not designing it
20:44:00 <doggyrat> yes i am not an expert in anything
20:45:00 <^bozojim> that shows
20:45:00 <^bozojim> I can see it now
20:45:00 <^bozojim> 25 defgrees off centre
20:47:00 <doggyrat> it will just be a cramp where to fix a screw to measure the distance being fixed at both forks
20:47:00 <^bozojim> they do have them now and tey are not expensice
20:48:00 <^bozojim> it is usually done by eye I have never heard of a rtool being used
20:48:00 <^bozojim> as the wheel sits between the brake pads in the calipers
20:49:00 <^bozojim> which sit on a scre mounted middle of the works
20:56:00 <doggyrat> ^bozojim: you are right i just check how much the cramp would cost printing it , it is not worth
20:57:00 <^bozojim> it took that long to work out Sherlock?
21:09:00 <Bonny> back
21:09:00 <^bozojim> wb Bonny
