I think it would do that, I'm using a similar but finer toothed belt on the z
axis drive for my mill, and as long as I have the thing tensioned up so the
belt can't throw some slack on the push side, the backlash is zip. Its the
finest pitched 3/8 belt McMaster-Carr had. Belt tooth pitch is relative, the
finest resolution is the motors step size, with Jeffs drivers, that is 1600
steps per turn of the motor. I suppose one could find a cyclic error with a
fine enough resolver, caused by the shape of the teeth, but for driving a
cutting torch, I'd think any pattern you could see would be well swamped by
the turbulence of the cutting flame. As a friend of mine would say, good
enough for the girls I go with. :-)

Fastening the belt to a solid surface is the first problem, I wouldn't trust a
superglue like substance to do that since the belt has sufficient flexibility
that all the forces must be absorbed by the glue joint within a few thou of
the actual tooth contact. Then the gravity or helper springs implied to
maintain contact would, in the bearings of the swing mount, represent another
source of backlash unless on very good swing bearings in order for it to
follow the wibbles of the rack holder. I'd much rather use a continuous
loop, over an adjustable for tension idler pulley on the far end, with the
end of the carriage attached to the belt by clamping a short section of rack
to the belt, no holes punched. Short pieces of rack can be had at
McMaster-Carr I believe. As long as the clamp is the same elevation as a
sight line from pulley to pulley, then the major precision worry is the sag
of the carriage guide rods and the sag and whip of the belt over that length
unless suspended in a track so it cannot sag or whip. The track will need a
few holes to allow the dirt to be swept on through though.

Here also I think I'd take a lesson from the panel saw at your local Lowes and
use a larger pipe with skate wheel bearings, maybe arranged on jack screws
above the main frame to allow the pipe to be jacked as true as you can
measure. Spot weld (resistance weld if you can, less warpage of the pipe)
the bolt to the side of the pipe and drop it into the main frame with a nut
above and below the frame. 4 or so per 8 foot length as long as we're
playing "what if" here should do it nicely. A 1" solid rod is fairly rigid,
but a 2" piece of 4340 pipe with .032 walls is even more rigid, and weighs a
heck of a lot less. Not to mention its a bunch cheaper than the same length
of drill rod and more than adequate dimensional tolerance.

Like I said, I wish I had the room for such a tool. OTOH, then I'd have to
hit the road and find work for it too but I'm too old to undertake another
career. :( So I'm semi-happy with my modified micromill I've tried to make
an X3 out of, should have bought one in the first place. Hindsight as
always, is 20-10. See my mess at <http://gene.homelinux.net:85/gene/emc> (vz
blocks port 80) 8-)

I do hope you find my comments useful.

>PS. I like your boxes quote.

Its been there for quite a few years now Marcin, and there are times when I
think its time for the last box to come off the shelf, the jury box isn't
working that well anymore. And then they do manage to stuff somebody that
needs it, putting off the inevitable. For a little while.

Connecting to Garden and Health via Bacteria

Guaka: Category:Food and Agriculture

Importance of a garden (hear part after the Anastasia story):

http://www.consciousmedianetwork.com/members/lsharashkin.htm

Note: In Russia, 70% of the families grow their own food gardens.

'''People in Russia grow 54% of all food produced by Russia! 46% is grown by commercial agriculture.'''

Russians spend 18 hours per week to grow food, in America, average American spends 32 hours per week

Research shows that gardens are 4x more productive than commercial variants in Russia, enen though gardens are typically done on marginal lands not suitable for commercial agriculture.

Historically, Russians had no fear of death - they saw themselves as part of all their ancestors and their posterity. That means, you live for ever. This is a different viewpoint than transhumanists hold on longevity.

OSTrac

2011-04-19T18:04:16Z

Guaka: merge from OS Trac

=OSTrac Concept=

OSTrac is an open source tractor/skid loader. It steers and loads like a skid loader, but beyond that it has a number of features that set it apart from skid loaders and make these vehicles suitable for agriculture. The main features for agriculture are a 3-point hitch, power takeoff, and high-flow hydraulic takeoff. These features make the OSTrac capable of using any agricultural implements.

OSTrac is also designed with a winch, and is designed to be equipped with well-drilling equipment with 10-foot drilling pipe sections.

As such, the design is one of highest utility and versatility, combining the power of skid loaders with agricultural tractors and construction tractors. A Compressed Eearth Block press is designed for use as an implement with OSTrac, and a backhoe as well.

The unique feature is the modularity and design for disassembly. Priority one is lifetime design, where any problem can be troubleshooted and fixed readily. Bye-bye to $1-2,000 transmission jobs at the shop. No transmission is required - it's built-in to the hydraulic drive.

Components are designed to be standard steel as much as possible. The goal is to have the user-owner fully capable of maintenance. By design, no issue in OSTrac should be more expensive than $250 to fix. Standard steel components (sheet, tubing, shaft, etc.) is used, with no forming or machining outside of minor welding and lathing, for repair and construction of OSTrac.

General design goals:

*Skid loader concept
*Skid steering
*4 wheel drive
*2 wheel drive for doubled speed
*Front-end loader
*Backhoe attachment available
*Well-drilling attachment available
*CEB attachment available
*Hybrid between a skid loader, agricultural tractor, and construction tractor

Specifications:

*4.5 mph in 4 wheel drive
*9 mph in 2 wheel drive
*40 gpm auxiliary hydraulics, 2 channels
*Weight: 3000 lb
*Modular: 2 OSTracs may be mounted together for double traction power
*3500 lb winch
*60 hp 4.2 l GM engine (weak point)
*Four 32 cubic inch hydraulic motors
*3-point hitch
*Power take off, hydraulic - 0-600 rpm

Maintenance:
*Yearly maintenance costs designed to be no more than $100 with heavy duty usage

Evolution:
*Flash-steam bladeless turbine drive being explored
*Flash-steam electric hybrid drive being developed

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

'''0. PREAMBLE'''

The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other functional and useful document "free" in the sense of freedom: to assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it, with or without modifying it, either commercially or noncommercially. Secondarily, this License preserves for the author and publisher a way to get credit for their work, while not being considered responsible for modifications made by others.

This License is a kind of "copyleft", which means that derivative works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense. It complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft license designed for free software.

We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free software, because free software needs free documentation: a free program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms that the software does. But this License is not limited to software manuals; it can be used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or whether it is published as a printed book. We recommend this License principally for works whose purpose is instruction or reference.

'''1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS'''

This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium, that contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be distributed under the terms of this License. Such a notice grants a world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration, to use that work under the conditions stated herein. The "Document", below, refers to any such manual or work. Any member of the public is a licensee, and is addressed as "you". You accept the license if you copy, modify or distribute the work in a way requiring permission under copyright law.

A "Modified Version" of the Document means any work containing the Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with modifications and/or translated into another language.

A "Secondary Section" is a named appendix or a front-matter section of the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall subject (or to related matters) and contains nothing that could fall directly within that overall subject. (Thus, if the Document is in part a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not explain any mathematics.) The relationship could be a matter of historical connection with the subject or with related matters, or of legal, commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position regarding them.

The "Invariant Sections" are certain Secondary Sections whose titles are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the notice that says that the Document is released under this License. If a section does not fit the above definition of Secondary then it is not allowed to be designated as Invariant. The Document may contain zero Invariant Sections. If the Document does not identify any Invariant Sections then there are none.

The "Cover Texts" are certain short passages of text that are listed, as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice that says that the Document is released under this License. A Front-Cover Text may be at most 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may be at most 25 words.

A "Transparent" copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy, represented in a format whose specification is available to the general public, that is suitable for revising the document straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed of pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely available drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text formatters or for automatic translation to a variety of formats suitable for input to text formatters. A copy made in an otherwise Transparent file format whose markup, or absence of markup, has been arranged to thwart or discourage subsequent modification by readers is not Transparent. An image format is not Transparent if used for any substantial amount of text. A copy that is not "Transparent" is called "Opaque".

Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format, SGML or XML using a publicly available DTD, and standard-conforming simple HTML, PostScript or PDF designed for human modification. Examples of transparent image formats include PNG, XCF and JPG. Opaque formats include proprietary formats that can be read and edited only by proprietary word processors, SGML or XML for which the DTD and/or processing tools are not generally available, and the machine-generated HTML, PostScript or PDF produced by some word processors for output purposes only.

The "Title Page" means, for a printed book, the title page itself, plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the material this License requires to appear in the title page. For works in formats which do not have any title page as such, "Title Page" means the text near the most prominent appearance of the work's title, preceding the beginning of the body of the text.

A section "Entitled XYZ" means a named subunit of the Document whose title either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses following text that translates XYZ in another language. (Here XYZ stands for a specific section name mentioned below, such as "Acknowledgements", "Dedications", "Endorsements", or "History".) To "Preserve the Title" of such a section when you modify the Document means that it remains a section "Entitled XYZ" according to this definition.

The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice which states that this License applies to the Document. These Warranty Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in this License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other implication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and has no effect on the meaning of this License.

'''2. VERBATIM COPYING'''

You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License applies to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you add no other conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You may not use technical measures to obstruct or control the reading or further copying of the copies you make or distribute. However, you may accept compensation in exchange for copies. If you distribute a large enough number of copies you must also follow the conditions in section 3.

You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and you may publicly display copies.

'''3. COPYING IN QUANTITY'''

If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly have printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and the Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must enclose the copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all these Cover Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts on the back cover. Both covers must also clearly and legibly identify you as the publisher of these copies. The front cover must present the full title with all words of the title equally prominent and visible. You may add other material on the covers in addition. Copying with changes limited to the covers, as long as they preserve the title of the Document and satisfy these conditions, can be treated as verbatim copying in other respects.

If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent pages.

If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document numbering more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable Transparent copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with each Opaque copy a computer-network location from which the general network-using public has access to download using public-standard network protocols a complete Transparent copy of the Document, free of added material. If you use the latter option, you must take reasonably prudent steps, when you begin distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure that this Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated location until at least one year after the last time you distribute an Opaque copy (directly or through your agents or retailers) of that edition to the public.

It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of the Document well before redistributing any large number of copies, to give them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the Document.

'''4. MODIFICATIONS'''

You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document under the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you release the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the Modified Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing distribution and modification of the Modified Version to whoever possesses a copy of it. In addition, you must do these things in the Modified Version:

* '''A.''' Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title distinct from that of the Document, and from those of previous versions (which should, if there were any, be listed in the History section of the Document). You may use the same title as a previous version if the original publisher of that version gives permission.
* '''B.''' List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or entities responsible for authorship of the modifications in the Modified Version, together with at least five of the principal authors of the Document (all of its principal authors, if it has fewer than five), unless they release you from this requirement.
* '''C.''' State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the Modified Version, as the publisher.
* '''D.''' Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.
* '''E.''' Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications adjacent to the other copyright notices.
* '''F.''' Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license notice giving the public permission to use the Modified Version under the terms of this License, in the form shown in the Addendum below.
* '''G.''' Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant Sections and required Cover Texts given in the Document's license notice.
* '''H.''' Include an unaltered copy of this License.
* '''I.''' Preserve the section Entitled "History", Preserve its Title, and add to it an item stating at least the title, year, new authors, and publisher of the Modified Version as given on the Title Page. If there is no section Entitled "History" in the Document, create one stating the title, year, authors, and publisher of the Document as given on its Title Page, then add an item describing the Modified Version as stated in the previous sentence.
* '''J.''' Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document for public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and likewise the network locations given in the Document for previous versions it was based on. These may be placed in the "History" section. You may omit a network location for a work that was published at least four years before the Document itself, or if the original publisher of the version it refers to gives permission.
* '''K.''' For any section Entitled "Acknowledgements" or "Dedications", Preserve the Title of the section, and preserve in the section all the substance and tone of each of the contributor acknowledgements and/or dedications given therein.
* '''L.''' Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document, unaltered in their text and in their titles. Section numbers or the equivalent are not considered part of the section titles.
* '''M.''' Delete any section Entitled "Endorsements". Such a section may not be included in the Modified Version.
* '''N.''' Do not retitle any existing section to be Entitled "Endorsements" or to conflict in title with any Invariant Section.
* '''O.''' Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers.

If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no material copied from the Document, you may at your option designate some or all of these sections as invariant. To do this, add their titles to the list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version's license notice. These titles must be distinct from any other section titles.

You may add a section Entitled "Endorsements", provided it contains nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various parties--for example, statements of peer review or that the text has been approved by an organization as the authoritative definition of a standard.

You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text, and a passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of the list of Cover Texts in the Modified Version. Only one passage of Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or through arrangements made by) any one entity. If the Document already includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added by you or by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on behalf of, you may not add another; but you may replace the old one, on explicit permission from the previous publisher that added the old one.

The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this License give permission to use their names for publicity for or to assert or imply endorsement of any Modified Version.

'''5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS'''

You may combine the Document with other documents released under this License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for modified versions, provided that you include in the combination all of the Invariant Sections of all of the original documents, unmodified, and list them all as Invariant Sections of your combined work in its license notice, and that you preserve all their Warranty Disclaimers.

The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name but different contents, make the title of each such section unique by adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the original author or publisher of that section if known, or else a unique number. Make the same adjustment to the section titles in the list of Invariant Sections in the license notice of the combined work.

In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled "History" in the various original documents, forming one section Entitled "History"; likewise combine any sections Entitled "Acknowledgements", and any sections Entitled "Dedications". You must delete all sections Entitled "Endorsements."

'''6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS'''

You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other documents released under this License, and replace the individual copies of this License in the various documents with a single copy that is included in the collection, provided that you follow the rules of this License for verbatim copying of each of the documents in all other respects.

You may extract a single document from such a collection, and distribute it individually under this License, provided you insert a copy of this License into the extracted document, and follow this License in all other respects regarding verbatim copying of that document.

'''7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS'''

A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an "aggregate" if the copyright resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the legal rights of the compilation's users beyond what the individual works permit. When the Document is included in an aggregate, this License does not apply to the other works in the aggregate which are not themselves derivative works of the Document.

If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one half of the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed on covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the electronic equivalent of covers if the Document is in electronic form. Otherwise they must appear on printed covers that bracket the whole aggregate.

'''8. TRANSLATION'''

Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section 4. Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special permission from their copyright holders, but you may include translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a translation of this License, and all the license notices in the Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also include the original English version of this License and the original versions of those notices and disclaimers. In case of a disagreement between the translation and the original version of this License or a notice or disclaimer, the original version will prevail.

If a section in the Document is Entitled "Acknowledgements", "Dedications", or "History", the requirement (section 4) to Preserve its Title (section 1) will typically require changing the actual title.

'''9. TERMINATION'''

You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document except as expressly provided for under this License. Any other attempt to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Document is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.

'''10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE'''

The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions of the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. See http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/.

Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version number. If the Document specifies that a particular numbered version of this License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that specified version or of any later version that has been published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation. If the Document does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation.

===[#TOC4 How to use this License for your documents]===

To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of the License in the document and put the following copyright and license notices just after the title page:

Copyright (c) YEAR YOUR NAME.
Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document
under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2
or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation;
with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover
Texts. A copy of the license is included in the section entitled "GNU
Free Documentation License".

If you have Invariant Sections, Front-Cover Texts and Back-Cover Texts, replace the "with...Texts." line with this:

with the Invariant Sections being LIST THEIR TITLES, with the
Front-Cover Texts being LIST, and with the Back-Cover Texts being LIST.

If you have Invariant Sections without Cover Texts, or some other combination of the three, merge those two alternatives to suit the situation.

If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we recommend releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of free software license, such as the GNU General Public License, to permit their use in free software.

Both of these licenses are incompatible with the GNU GPL.

Could we include the GNU GPL as one more of the licenses - as a tri-license, or just use the GNU GPL alone? -- [[User:AGNUcius|AGNUcius]]

----
I don't see why we can't tri-license. Will come back later.

Patrick, are you talking about GNU GPL for written content here, or GNU GPL for actual designs. Written content is different than designs. We should probably specify a copylefted license for hardware design, such as http://www.tapr.org/ohl.html or an appropriate license that addresses hardware design, for hardware designs themselves.

There is also the matter of code that will be generated, which is easy (GNU GPL)

But for license of written content here, we can tri license if you'd like. Maybe you can help me understand why GNU Freedoc and creative commons are incompatible with GNU GPL, and why GNU GPL must be included (I don't have a problem with it at all, just want to understand) --[[User:SamRose|SamRose]] 08:45, 8 March 2008 (PST)

First of all, there is no reason to use the GFDL or the any of the CC licenses when the GNU GPL does all that they need to accomplish and avoids the problems they cause. It is unfortunate that the FSF promotes such a mess.

Second of all, there are many reasons not to use them - primarily that they conflict with the extremely important and most used of all Free Content licenses - the GNU GPL.

You say "written content" is different from design, but I would say that line is fuzzy at best and completely absent if we push the concept to it's final extreme.

The "written content" here are concepts, ideas, plans that are the basis of design - whether it is for mechanical design, or (in my case) toward the design of an economic system of operation. There is no reason to separate them.

== GFDL ==
The explanations at http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#WhyNotGPLForManuals give no good reasons:

1. Why not be required to offer the Source (the TeX files for instance) to a manual? It would make it possible for an author that wanted to make an improved version to do so with ease. What a terrible idea that it is a burden to authors of non-executable text when the GNU GPL requires it for authors of executable text.

2. The idea of "the standard" version of a manual is just as valid for software because of Trademark. It is illegal to modify the Linux kernel and then distribute it as though it were "the standard" version using the name Linux. This argument has no basis.

3. The statment ''we permit changes in the text of a manual that covers its technical topic.'' is vacuous as well, since the GNU GPL obviously also allows modifications. A complete non-argument.

4. Provision for "invariant sections" for the purpose of piggybacking "political positions" is coercion. Why not allow software developers to require political messages be displayed? The reason is that it removes a user's freedom. The GNU GFDL is a terrible idea, and does not preserve User Freedom. I still don't understand how or why RMS decided to create it.

Here are some more explanations

''Why You Shouldn't Use the GNU FDL'' -- http://home.twcny.rr.com/nerode/neroden/fdl.html

''This document is being put together to attempt to address some concerns that members of the Debian legal team have about the GNU Free Documentation License. This document attempts to present the reasoning behind the conclusion that the GNU FDL is not regarded as a license that can easily satisfy the Debian Free Software Guidelines.'' -- http://people.debian.org/~srivasta/Position_Statement.xhtml

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Free_Documentation_License#Criticism_of_the_GFDL

== CC-BY-SA ==
The 'by' part of CC-BY-SA requires attribution be attached to all copies. There is no need for this ego inflator. Furthermore, it is sometimes very difficult, and maybe even impossible to determine who the author was. At other times the text (whether considered design or not) may have many authors - in the case of Wikipedia the number could be in the thousands per document. This is an irresolvable tragedy that could have been avoided by sticking with a truly free license such as one of the GNU GPLs.
