Let op! Bitlair is geen bedrijf maar een hobbyclub. Bitlair neemt in principe geen opdrachten aan. Wel kunt u deelnemer worden en zelf leren om de lasercutter te bedienen. Na instructie kunt u dan zelfstandig de lasercutter gebruiken.<br />
<br />
= Informatie =<br />
Dit is een lasercutter met een 60W laserbuis.<br />
<br />
De grootte van het snijoppervlak is 126x63cm.<br />
<br />
= Veiligheidswaarschuwingen =<br />
<br />
[[File:Iso7010-waarschuwingssticker-laserstraal.jpg|right]]<br />
<br />
De lasersnijder kan bij onveilig gebruik leiden tot permanente blindheid (lasers), of de dood (40.000 volt) danwel brand. Het is dan ook belangrijk om goed te weten wat je doet, en de machine NOOIT alleen te laten terwijl deze bezig is met een job. Let hier dus op bij langdurige jobs (ga vooraf naar de wc, haal vast wat drinken etc.) zodat je de laser niet uit het oog kan verliezen.<br />
<br />
'''Gebruik geen materialen die chloor bevatten, hier komt een gas bij vrij wat niet alleen slecht is voor de machine maar ook zeer giftig voor mensen.'''<br />
Om te bepalen of een plastic chloor bevat kun je de zogeheten Burntest doen.<br />
<br />
[https://laseruser.com/what-can-a-laser-cutter-cut/ Voor andere materialen kun je ook deze guide raadnemen], alles met “take care”(gele kop) kan gevaarlijk zijn, wees extra voorzichtig.<br />
<br />
De iButton die je krijgt om de lasersnijder in te schakelen is bestemd voor het automatisch afrekenen van de kosten en geldt NIET als verificatie dat je in staat bent met dit apparaat te werken!<br />
<br />
Vraag om veiligheidsinstructie en uitleg bij:<br />
* Linor<br />
* Jeroen<br />
<br />
== Foutmeldingen m.b.t. temperatuur ==<br />
<br />
Er is waterkoeling aanwezig bij de lasersnijder, dit is de kast die er rechts van staat. Wanneer de snijder aangezet wordt, gaat deze ook vanzelf aan. Het is niet mogelijk om de snijder te bedienen als het koelwater te warm is.<br />
De temperatuur is ingesteld op 20 graden (onderste display), en de huidige temperatuur is op de bovenste display af te lezen.<br />
Als de watertemperatuur boven de 25 graden stijgt begint de koeling te piepen, dit lost zich vanzelf op.<br />
<br />
<br />
= Kosten =<br />
<br />
In de lasersnijder worden onderdelen gebruikt die aan slijtage onderhevig zijn, met name de laserbuis. Om deze te kunnen vervangen bij stukgaan worden voor het gebruik van de machine kosten in rekening gebracht. Voor deelnemers is het uurtarief 12 euro, voor niet deelnemers is het tarief 24 euro per uur. Afreken gebeurd met met behulp van [[Projects/Dagobert|Dagobert]], waarbij na koppeling van iButton het verschuldigde bedrag direct van je revbank account afgeschreven wordt. Check met [[User:Linor|Linor]], [[User:Vuurtorenjeroen|Jeroen]] of iemand van het Bitlair bestuur om je iButton toe te voegen aan de lijst.<br />
<br />
Voor niet-deelnemers is er in de Bitlair-kast een iButton aanwezig welke gebruikt kan worden. Deze is ingesteld om tegen het hogere tarief af te rekenen op het "lasercuttergast" baraccount. Wanneer je met deze iButton klaar bent met snijden, verplaats bartegoed van jouw eigen account naar dit account met het "give" commando. In principe moet dit account altijd op € 0.00 staan, dus de totaalschuld van dit account zijn daarmee de kosten die je hebt gemaakt.<br />
<br />
= Lightburn =<br />
Voor het aansturen van de laser gebruiken we Lightburn. Lightburn is makkelijk te leren software, ooit bedoeld om alleen je bestand naar de laser te sturen, maar inmiddels uitgegroeid tot een editing programma, foto voorbereiding en allerlei handige tools.<br />
Het is closed source maar er wordt actief aan ontwikkeld en beschikbaar voor Windows, Mac en Linux.<br />
Naast de lasercutter staat een pc van Bitlair met een gelicentieerde versie van Lightburn waarop je je bestanden vanaf een USB stick kan kopieren en kan snijden.<br />
<br />
= Lightburn op je eigen laptop =<br />
<br />
Maar wellicht wil je je bestanden thuis voorbereiden en dan meenemen naar de space?<br />
Normaal kost de DSP licentie (voor het aansturen van de RUIDA DSP Controller) 80 USD.<br />
Voor deelnemers van Bitlair hebben we een korting weten te regelen van 75%, hierdoor zakt de prijs naar 20USD (ten tijde van dit schrijven zo'n 16-17 euro). Om deze code te kunnen gebruiken, vraag je een Bitlair bestuurslid, Krijn of Jeroen. Een van deze 8 personen kan je helpen met de kortingscode.<br />
<br />
Je kan de software hier downloaden: [https://lightburnsoftware.com/collections/frontpage/products/lightburn-dsp]<br />
Druk ADD to Cart, daarna checkout, vul je gegevens in en vraag dan een van de 8 licentiecode beheerders om de korting in te tikken in het Discount field (rechtsboven). Je ziet dan de prijs van 80 naar 20USD gaan. Binnen enkele minuten ontvang je op het door jouw opgegeven emailadres een mailtje van Lightburnsoftware met daarin je licentie code. Je gaat in het programma naar HELP en dan License Management en kan daar je licentie code invullen. Druk op activate en je krijgt meteen terugmelding dat je licentie is geactiveerd. Je hebt vanaf nu 1 jaar (364 dagen ;-) recht op updates. Na deze tijd kan je nog steeds bestanden naar de Ruida controller van de lasercutter sturen, maar krijg je geen updates meer, tenzij je dit weer verlengd.<br />
<br />
= Job voorbereiden =<br />
<br />
Lightburn accepteert SVG, DXF en AI vector file, daarnaast diverse image formaten.<br />
Als je in Lightburn op ALT-P drukt, of op het televisie icoontje krijg je een preview.<br />
Door op Play te drukken kan je precies zien welk pad de laser gaat afleggen.<br />
Je kan de snelheid van afspelen instellen, je kan ook de slider handmatig op en neer bewegen.<br />
<br />
Lightburn kent 3 laagmodes:<br />
- Line<br />
- Fill<br />
- Offset Fill<br />
<br />
'''Line'''<br />
Line wordt gebruikt voor het snijden of om te scoren (op dit laatste kom ik later terug)<br />
Snijden doe je door met voldoende vermogen en aangepaste snelheid te snijden.<br />
Voor 4mm populieren multiplex gebruik je bijv. 8mm/s en 100% vermogen.<br />
De lasercutter is zo aangepast dat 100% vermogen de maximum toegestane maximale stroom door de buis stuurt (22mA).<br />
Je kan dus niet (meer) de laserbuis kapot maken door er 30mA doorheen te jagen (dit was eerder wel het geval).<br />
<br />
Scoren is Line maar bewust op een lager vermogen, soms wil je een detail aanbrengen maar niet graveren (bijv. omdat het te object heel groot is en graveren 2 uur zou duren).<br />
Dan kan je dus op laag vermogen (20-30%) en wat hogere snelheid (30mm/s) "snijden". Je komt dan niet door het materiaal heen, maar brengt snel tekst/vormen aan die op graveren veel langer zouden duren.<br />
[https://web.archive.org/web/20160319011848/http://www.mrrace.com/CamBam_Fonts/CamBam%20Stick%20Fonts.zip Er zijn ook speciale single line fonts], zodat je heel snel leesbare tekst aanbrengt, zonder te hoeven wachten op lange gravures.<br />
<br />
'''Fill'''<br />
Fill is graveren. Fill gebruik je als je wil graveren, doe je meerdere passes kan je zgn. Diep graveren. Diepe gravures kan je bijv. met verf vullen, na opdrogen kan je dan je werkstuk opschuren, dit gebruik je bijv. voor Huisnummer bordjes. Graveren ondanks dat het op hogere snelheid gaat dan snijden/scoren, duurt langer omdat de hele afbeelding in bijv. 0.1mm lijnen wordt gegraveerd (254dpi is 0,1mm, 127dpi is 0,2mm). Stel je wil iets van 10cm hoog graveren, dan moet de laser 100mm/0.1 is 1000 keer over het object (500 keer heen en terug). Stel dat je graveert op 40mm/s dan duurt die 2.5sec per pass, dus 5 seconden heen en terug, en dat keer 500, dus 2500 seconden, dus je bent dan ruim 40 minuten onderweg. Waarbij nog geen eens rekening is gehouden met de omkering van de kop. In de preview (ALT-P of televisie icoontje) kan je een inschatting zien hoe lang het graveren duurt. Omdat de Bitlair lasercutter relatief langzaam omkeert (lage acceleratie) is dit soms rooskleurig. Houd hier rekening mee.<br />
<br />
Met fill heb je in “properties” ook de opties “fill all shapes at once”, “fill groups together” en “fill all shapes individually”, dit kan een enorme impact op hoelang fill duurt, “all shapes at once” is nuttig voor veel figuren aan/dichtbij elkaar, “fill groups together” is nuttig als de objecten die dicht bij elkaar in groups zijn, “fill all shapes individually” is nuttig voor losse figuren.<br />
<br />
Kortom graveren is niet snel, wel mooi.<br />
<br />
'''Offset Fill'''<br />
Offset fill is graveren middels een line (score) die binnen in het object begint en dan steeds groter wordt. Stel je offset filled een vierkantje, dan begint hij midden in het vierkantje met een klein puntje, waar de laser vervolgens een klein vierkantje omheenzet en dan in 1 continue lijn steeds eromheen blijft gaan, totdat het hele object gevuld is.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Als je een gecombineerde job (graveren/snijden) hebt, zorg dan dat de graveerlaag eerst wordt uitgevoerd. <br />
De reden dat het graveren vóór het snijden moet gebeuren, is dat het stuk na het uitsnijden op de ondergrond valt, waardoor de verticale uitlijning verandert.<br />
Je kan dit doen door in het Layers menu met de pijltjes achter de layers de lagen in de juiste volgorde te zetten:<br />
<br />
[[File:Layers.jpg]]<br />
<br />
= Machine aanzetten =<br />
<br />
Schakel de stroom in naar de lasersnijder (schakelaar achteraan), hierna zal de machine inschakelen en het beveiligings-menu tonen. <br />
<br />
Bied nu je iButton aan. Hierna zal de lasercutter inschakelen en is deze klaar om jobs te ontvangen.<br />
<br />
[[File:Ruida 2021.png||300px]]<br />
<br />
= Job uitvoeren =<br />
<br />
Als je je materiaal hebt geplaatst, de klep naar beneden hebt gedaan, je opdracht hebt verstuurd en de HALC hem heeft ontvangen. Dan bied je de iButton aan, Deelnemers hun eigen en gasten de Guest button, dan druk je op de rode knop en de laser doet het werk. <br />
<br />
Kijk niet te lang rechtstreeks in de laser. Dit kan leiden tot permanente blindheid. Laat de machine NOOIT alleen terwijl deze bezig is met een opdracht. Je weet nooit wat het effect precies is de eerste keer als je met een bepaald materiaal werk en de laser heeft af en toe keuren.<br />

= Draaibank metaal=<br />
<br />
== Wat is het? ==<br />
Een draaibank (Lathe) is een machine om hoge nauwkeurigheid, kleine en vaak ronde, metalen objecten mee te maken. <br><br />
Bijvoorbeeld als je een speciaal ringetje of spacer nodig hebt van een exacte maat voor je 3D-print of houtwerk. <br><br />
Met een beetje oefenen moet je dingen kunnen maken met toleranties van kleiner dan 0.05 mm. <br><br />
<br />
De Emco is bij Bitlair gekomen nadat deze over was bij Hack42 omdat ze grotere machines hebben geregeld. <br><br />
Met de live center en snel wissel houder is de machine redelijk compleet voor kleine projectjes. <br><br />
<br />
Jan-Willem heeft de CH-350 draaibank uitgeleend aan Bitlair welke iets groter en completer is dan de Emco. <br><br />
Het is geen probleem om deze te gebruiken, maar graag eerst overleggen met Jan-Willem. <br><br />
<br />
Voor beide machines geldt: Graag de machines compleet houden en de onderdelen bij de machine houden. <br><br />
Soms hebben we imbus- en steeklsleutels bij de machine gezocht en het is fijn om niet te hoeven zoeken om de machine te gebruiken.<br />
<br />
== Hoe werkt een draaibank ==<br />
Het leren hoe je veilig en efficiënt met een draaibank kan werken kost enige zelfstudie. <br><br />
Dit kan zowel door boeken lezen als op YT naar instructie video's kijken. <br><br />
Het makkelijkste is om iteratief te werken: leren, uitproberen, volgende ding leren, etc. <br />

<br />
== Wat is het? ==<br />
Een draaibank (Lathe) is een machine om hoge nauwkeurigheid, kleine en vaak ronde, metalen objecten mee te maken. <br><br />
Bijvoorbeeld als je een speciaal ringetje of spacer nodig hebt van een exacte maat voor je 3D-print of houtwerk. <br><br />
Met een beetje oefenen moet je dingen kunnen maken met toleranties van kleiner dan 0.05 mm. <br><br />
<br />
De Emco is bij Bitlair gekomen nadat deze over was bij Hack42 omdat ze grotere machines hebben geregeld. <br><br />
Met de live center en snel wissel houder is de machine redelijk compleet voor kleine projectjes. <br><br />
<br />
Jan-Willem heeft de CH-350 draaibank uitgeleend aan Bitlair welke iets groter en completer is dan de Emco. <br><br />
Het is geen probleem om deze te gebruiken, maar graag eerst overleggen met Jan-Willem. <br><br />
<br />
Voor beide machines geldt: Graag de machines compleet houden en de onderdelen bij de machine houden. <br><br />
Soms hebben we imbus- en steeklsleutels bij de machine gezocht en het is fijn om niet te hoeven zoeken om de machine te gebruiken.<br />
<br />
== Hoe werkt een draaibank ==<br />
Het leren hoe je veilig en efficiënt met een draaibank kan werken kost enige zelfstudie. <br><br />
Dit kan zowel door boeken lezen als op YT naar instructie video's kijken. <br><br />
Het makkelijkste is om iteratief te werken: leren, uitproberen, volgende ding leren, etc. <br />

Let op! Bitlair is geen bedrijf maar een hobbyclub. Bitlair neemt in principe geen opdrachten aan. Wel kunt u deelnemer worden en zelf leren om de lasercutter te bedienen. Na instructie kunt u dan zelfstandig de lasercutter gebruiken.<br />
<br />
= Informatie =<br />
Dit is een lasercutter met een 60W laserbuis.<br />
<br />
De grootte van het snijoppervlak is 126x63cm.<br />
<br />
= Veiligheidswaarschuwingen =<br />
<br />
[[File:Iso7010-waarschuwingssticker-laserstraal.jpg|right]]<br />
<br />
De lasersnijder kan bij onveilig gebruik leiden tot permanente blindheid (lasers), of de dood (40.000 volt) danwel brand. Het is dan ook belangrijk om goed te weten wat je doet, en de machine NOOIT alleen te laten terwijl deze bezig is met een job. Let hier dus op bij langdurige jobs (ga vooraf naar de wc, haal vast wat drinken etc.) zodat je de laser niet uit het oog kan verliezen.<br />
<br />
'''Gebruik geen materialen die chloor bevatten, hier komt een gas bij vrij wat niet alleen slecht is voor de machine maar ook zeer giftig voor mensen.'''<br />
Om te bepalen of een plastic chloor bevat kun je de zogeheten Burntest doen.<br />
<br />
[https://laseruser.com/what-can-a-laser-cutter-cut/ Voor andere materialen kun je ook deze guide raadnemen], alles met “take care”(gele kop) kan gevaarlijk zijn, wees extra voorzichtig.<br />
<br />
De iButton die je krijgt om de lasersnijder in te schakelen is bestemd voor het automatisch afrekenen van de kosten en geldt NIET als verificatie dat je in staat bent met dit apparaat te werken!<br />
<br />
Vraag om veiligheidsinstructie en uitleg bij:<br />
* Linor<br />
* Jeroen<br />
<br />
== Foutmeldingen m.b.t. temperatuur ==<br />
<br />
Er is waterkoeling aanwezig bij de lasersnijder, dit is de kast die er rechts van staat. Wanneer de snijder aangezet wordt, gaat deze ook vanzelf aan. Het is niet mogelijk om de snijder te bedienen als het koelwater te warm is.<br />
De temperatuur is ingesteld op 20 graden (onderste display), en de huidige temperatuur is op de bovenste display af te lezen.<br />
Als de watertemperatuur boven de 25 graden stijgt begint de koeling te piepen, dit lost zich vanzelf op.<br />
<br />
<br />
= Kosten =<br />
<br />
In de lasersnijder worden onderdelen gebruikt die aan slijtage onderhevig zijn, met name de laserbuis. Om deze te kunnen vervangen bij stukgaan worden voor het gebruik van de machine kosten in rekening gebracht. Voor deelnemers is het uurtarief 12 euro, voor niet deelnemers is het tarief 24 euro per uur. Afreken gebeurd met met behulp van [[Projects/Dagobert|Dagobert]], waarbij na koppeling van iButton het verschuldigde bedrag direct van je revbank account afgeschreven wordt. Check met [[User:Linor|Linor]], [[User:Vuurtorenjeroen|Jeroen]] of iemand van het Bitlair bestuur om je iButton toe te voegen aan de lijst.<br />
<br />
Voor niet-deelnemers is er in de Bitlair-kast een iButton aanwezig welke gebruikt kan worden. Deze is ingesteld om tegen het hogere tarief af te rekenen op het "lasercuttergast" baraccount. Wanneer je met deze iButton klaar bent met snijden, verplaats bartegoed van jouw eigen account naar dit account met het "give" commando. In principe moet dit account altijd op € 0.00 staan, dus de totaalschuld van dit account zijn daarmee de kosten die je hebt gemaakt.<br />
<br />
= Lightburn =<br />
Voor het aansturen van de laser gebruiken we Lightburn. Lightburn is makkelijk te leren software, ooit bedoeld om alleen je bestand naar de laser te sturen, maar inmiddels uitgegroeid tot een editing programma, foto voorbereiding en allerlei handige tools.<br />
Het is closed source maar er wordt actief aan ontwikkeld en beschikbaar voor Windows, Mac en Linux.<br />
Naast de lasercutter staat een pc van Bitlair met een gelicentieerde versie van Lightburn waarop je je bestanden vanaf een USB stick kan kopieren en kan snijden.<br />
<br />
= Lightburn op je eigen laptop =<br />
<br />
Maar wellicht wil je je bestanden thuis voorbereiden en dan meenemen naar de space?<br />
Normaal kost de DSP licentie (voor het aansturen van de RUIDA DSP Controller) 80 USD.<br />
Voor deelnemers van Bitlair hebben we een korting weten te regelen van 75%, hierdoor zakt de prijs naar 20USD (ten tijde van dit schrijven zo'n 16-17 euro). Om deze code te kunnen gebruiken, vraag je een Bitlair bestuurslid, Krijn of Jeroen. Een van deze 8 personen kan je helpen met de kortingscode.<br />
<br />
Je kan de software hier downloaden: [https://lightburnsoftware.com/collections/frontpage/products/lightburn-dsp]<br />
Druk ADD to Cart, daarna checkout, vul je gegevens in en vraag dan een van de 8 licentiecode beheerders om de korting in te tikken in het Discount field (rechtsboven). Je ziet dan de prijs van 80 naar 20USD gaan. Binnen enkele minuten ontvang je op het door jouw opgegeven emailadres een mailtje van Lightburnsoftware met daarin je licentie code. Je gaat in het programma naar HELP en dan License Management en kan daar je licentie code invullen. Druk op activate en je krijgt meteen terugmelding dat je licentie is geactiveerd. Je hebt vanaf nu 1 jaar (364 dagen ;-) recht op updates. Na deze tijd kan je nog steeds bestanden naar de Ruida controller van de lasercutter sturen, maar krijg je geen updates meer, tenzij je dit weer verlengd.<br />
<br />
= Job voorbereiden =<br />
<br />
Lightburn accepteert SVG, DXF en AI vector file, daarnaast diverse image formaten.<br />
Als je in Lightburn op ALT-P drukt, of op het televisie icoontje krijg je een preview.<br />
Door op Play te drukken kan je precies zien welk pad de laser gaat afleggen.<br />
Je kan de snelheid van afspelen instellen, je kan ook de slider handmatig op en neer bewegen.<br />
<br />
Lightburn kent 3 laagmodes:<br />
- Line<br />
- Fill<br />
- Offset Fill<br />
<br />
'''Line'''<br />
Line wordt gebruikt voor het snijden of om te scoren (op dit laatste kom ik later terug)<br />
Snijden doe je door met voldoende vermogen en aangepaste snelheid te snijden.<br />
Voor 4mm populieren multiplex gebruik je bijv. 8mm/s en 100% vermogen.<br />
De lasercutter is zo aangepast dat 100% vermogen de maximum toegestane maximale stroom door de buis stuurt (22mA).<br />
Je kan dus niet (meer) de laserbuis kapot maken door er 30mA doorheen te jagen (dit was eerder wel het geval).<br />
<br />
Scoren is Line maar bewust op een lager vermogen, soms wil je een detail aanbrengen maar niet graveren (bijv. omdat het te object heel groot is en graveren 2 uur zou duren).<br />
Dan kan je dus op laag vermogen (20-30%) en wat hogere snelheid (30mm/s) "snijden". Je komt dan niet door het materiaal heen, maar brengt snel tekst/vormen aan die op graveren veel langer zouden duren.<br />
[https://web.archive.org/web/20160319011848/http://www.mrrace.com/CamBam_Fonts/CamBam%20Stick%20Fonts.zip Er zijn ook speciale single line fonts], zodat je heel snel leesbare tekst aanbrengt, zonder te hoeven wachten op lange gravures.<br />
<br />
'''Fill'''<br />
Fill is graveren. Fill gebruik je als je wil graveren, doe je meerdere passes kan je zgn. Diep graveren. Diepe gravures kan je bijv. met verf vullen, na opdrogen kan je dan je werkstuk opschuren, dit gebruik je bijv. voor Huisnummer bordjes. Graveren ondanks dat het op hogere snelheid gaat dan snijden/scoren, duurt langer omdat de hele afbeelding in bijv. 0.1mm lijnen wordt gegraveerd (254dpi is 0,1mm, 127dpi is 0,2mm). Stel je wil iets van 10cm hoog graveren, dan moet de laser 100mm/0.1 is 1000 keer over het object (500 keer heen en terug). Stel dat je graveert op 40mm/s dan duurt die 2.5sec per pass, dus 5 seconden heen en terug, en dat keer 500, dus 2500 seconden, dus je bent dan ruim 40 minuten onderweg. Waarbij nog geen eens rekening is gehouden met de omkering van de kop. In de preview (ALT-P of televisie icoontje) kan je een inschatting zien hoe lang het graveren duurt. Omdat de Bitlair lasercutter relatief langzaam omkeert (lage acceleratie) is dit soms rooskleurig. Houd hier rekening mee.<br />
<br />
Met fill heb je in “properties” ook de opties “fill all shapes at once”, “fill groups together” en “fill all shapes individually”, dit kan een enorme impact op hoelang fill duurt, “all shapes at once” is nuttig voor veel figuren aan/dichtbij elkaar, “fill groups together” is nuttig als de objecten die dicht bij elkaar in groups zijn, “fill all shapes individually” is nuttig voor losse figuren.<br />
<br />
Kortom graveren is niet snel, wel mooi.<br />
<br />
'''Offset Fill'''<br />
Offset fill is graveren middels een line (score) die binnen in het object begint en dan steeds groter wordt. Stel je offset filled een vierkantje, dan begint hij midden in het vierkantje met een klein puntje, waar de laser vervolgens een klein vierkantje omheenzet en dan in 1 continue lijn steeds eromheen blijft gaan, totdat het hele object gevuld is.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Als je een gecombineerde job (graveren/snijden) hebt, zorg dan dat de graveerlaag eerst wordt uitgevoerd. <br />
De reden dat het graveren vóór het snijden moet gebeuren, is dat het stuk na het uitsnijden op de ondergrond valt, waardoor de verticale uitlijning verandert.<br />
Je kan dit doen door in het Layers menu met de pijltjes achter de layers de lagen in de juiste volgorde te zetten:<br />
<br />
[[File:Layers.jpg]]<br />
<br />
= Machine aanzetten =<br />
<br />
Schakel de stroom in naar de lasersnijder (schakelaar achteraan), hierna zal de machine inschakelen en het beveiligings-menu tonen. <br />
<br />
Bied nu je iButton aan. Hierna zal de lasercutter inschakelen en is deze klaar om jobs te ontvangen.<br />
<br />
[[File:Ruida 2021.png||300px]]<br />
<br />
= Job uitvoeren =<br />
<br />
Als je je materiaal hebt geplaatst, de klep naar beneden hebt gedaan, je opdracht hebt verstuurd en de HALC hem heeft ontvangen. Dan bied je de iButton aan, Deelnemers hun eigen en gasten de Guest button, dan druk je op de rode knop en de laser doet het werk. <br />
<br />
Kijk niet te lang rechtstreeks in de laser. Dit kan leiden tot permanente blindheid. Laat de machine NOOIT alleen terwijl deze bezig is met een opdracht. Je weet nooit wat het effect precies is de eerste keer als je met een bepaald materiaal werk en de laser heeft af en toe keuren.<br />

|status=Alpha<br />
}}<br />
<br />
De provincie is bezig met het vervangen van LED-borden langs de weg die vertrektijden tonen. <br />
<br />
We kunnen een aantal hiervan krijgen. Ik heb contact met de provincie (en de aannemer voor de vervanging).<br />
<br />
Het is nog niet bekend hoeveel we er kunnen krijgen, en waar deze gehaald kunnen worden. Zodra we dat weten is logistieke hulp welkom<br />
<br />
Deze actie wordt door mij opgezet, dus zonder enige toestemming/zegening/endorsement/medewerking van Bitlair.<br />
<br />
== Voorwaarden ==<br />
<br />
We mogen de borden overnemen onder de volgende voorwaarden:<br />
<br />
* Het levert geen vertraging op voor het project, zowel voor de opdrachtgever (provincie Utrecht) als de opdrachtnemer (Epsilon/Strukton).<br />
* Zonder toestemming van de provincie worden ze niet ingezet in de publieke ruimte, met winst oogmerk e/o voor commerciële doelstellingen.<br />
* De Displays worden ter beschikking gesteld en alle verantwoordelijkheid is voor jullie. De Displays zijn ca. 10 jaar oud en dus geven we geen garanties af m.b.t. veiligheid, staat van de borden enz.<br />
* Jullie stemmen het onderling af met de opdrachtnemer (Epsilon/Strukton). [ik hou contact met hun, red.]<br />
<br />
== Interesse ==<br />
<br />
Graag alleen jezelf op de lijst zetten als je Bitlair-member bent. Dit ivm de voorwaarden die de provincie ons stelt, ik wil er liever geen mensen bij betrekken die ik enkel zal kennen door dit project.<br />
<br />
Als je jezelf op de lijst plaatst heb je kennis genomen van, en ga je akkoord met, bovenstaande voorwaarden.<br />
<br />
Wordt verwerkt op volgorde van binnenkomst.<br />

Let op! Bitlair is geen bedrijf maar een hobbyclub. Bitlair neemt in principe geen opdrachten aan. Wel kunt u deelnemer worden en zelf leren om de lasercutter te bedienen. Na instructie kunt u dan zelfstandig de lasercutter gebruiken.<br />

<br />
De lasersnijder kan bij onveilig gebruik leiden tot permanente blindheid (lasers), of de dood (40.000 volt) danwel brand. Het is dan ook belangrijk om goed te weten wat je doet, en de machine NOOIT alleen te laten terwijl deze bezig is met een job. Let hier dus op bij langdurige jobs (ga vooraf naar de wc, haal vast wat drinken etc. zodat je de laser niet uit het oog kan verliezen.<br />
<br />
'''Gebruik geen materialen die chloor bevatten, hier komt een gas bij vrij wat niet alleen slecht is voor de machine maar ook zeer giftig voor mensen'''<br />
Om te bepalen of een plastic chloor bevat kun je de zogeheten Burntest doen (Insert link youtube filmpje hier).<br />
<br />
= Kosten =<br />
<br />
In de lasersnijder worden onderdelen gebruikt die aan slijtage onderhevig zijn, met name de laserbuis. Om deze te kunnen vervangen bij stukgaan worden voor het gebruik van de machine kosten in rekening gebracht. Voor deelnemers is het uurtarief 12 euro, voor niet deelnemers is het tarief 24 euro per uur. Afreken gebeurd met met behulp van [[Projects/Dagobert|Dagobert]], waarbij na koppeling van iButton het verschuldigde bedrag direct van je revbank account afgeschreven wordt. Check met [[User:Linor|Linor]], [[User:Vuurtorenjeroen|Jeroen]] of iemand van het Bitlair bestuur om je iButton toe te voegen aan de lijst.<br />
<br />
Voor niet-deelnemers is er in de Bitlair-kast een iButton aanwezig welke gebruikt kan worden. Deze is ingesteld om tegen het hogere tarief af te rekenen op het "lasercuttergast" baraccount. Wanneer je met deze iButton klaar bent met snijden, verplaats bartegoed van jouw eigen account naar dit account met het "give" commando. In principe moet dit account altijd op € 0.00 staan, dus de totaalschuld van dit account zijn daarmee de kosten die je hebt gemaakt.<br />
<br />
= Lightburn =<br />
Voor het aansturen van de laser gebruiken we Lightburn. Lightburn is makkelijk te leren software, ooit bedoeld om alleen je bestand naar de laser te sturen, maar inmiddels uitgegroeid tot een editing programma, foto voorbereiding en allerlei handige tools.<br />
Het is closed source maar er wordt actief aan ontwikkeld en beschikbaar voor Windows, Mac en Linux.<br />
Naast de lasercutter staat een pc van Bitlair met een gelicentieerde versie van Lightburn waarop je je bestanden vanaf een USB stick kan kopieren en kan snijden.<br />
<br />
= Lightburn op je eigen laptop =<br />
<br />
Maar wellicht wil je je bestanden thuis voorbereiden en dan meenemen naar de space?<br />
Normaal kost de DSP licentie (voor het aansturen van de RUIDA DSP Controller) 80 USD.<br />
Voor deelnemers van Bitlair hebben we een korting weten te regelen van 75%, hierdoor zakt de prijs naar 20USD (ten tijde van dit schrijven zo'n 16-17 euro). Om deze code te kunnen gebruiken, vraag je een Bitlair bestuurslid, Krijn of Jeroen. Een van deze 8 personen kan je helpen met de kortingscode.<br />
<br />
Je kan de software hier downloaden: [https://lightburnsoftware.com/collections/frontpage/products/lightburn-dsp]<br />
Druk ADD to Cart, daarna checkout, vul je gegevens in en vraag dan een van de 8 licentiecode beheerders om de korting in te tikken in het Discount field (rechtsboven). Je ziet dan de prijs van 80 naar 20USD gaan. Binnen enkele minuten ontvang je op het door jouw opgegeven emailadres een mailtje van Lightburnsoftware met daarin je licentie code. Je gaat in het programma naar HELP en dan License Management en kan daar je licentie code invullen. Druk op activate en je krijgt meteen terugmelding dat je licentie is geactiveerd. Je hebt vanaf nu 1 jaar (364 dagen ;-) recht op updates. Na deze tijd kan je nog steeds bestanden naar de Ruida controller van de lasercutter sturen, maar krijg je geen updates meer, tenzij je dit weer verlengd.<br />
<br />
= Job voorbereiden =<br />
<br />
Lightburn accepteert SVG, DXF en AI vector file, daarnaast diverse image formaten.<br />
Als je in Lightburn op ALT-P drukt, of op het televisie icoontje krijg je een preview.<br />
Door op Play te drukken kan je precies zien welk pad de laser gaat afleggen.<br />
Je kan de snelheid van afspelen instellen, je kan ook de slider handmatig op en neer bewegen.<br />
<br />
Lightburn kent 4 laagmodes:<br />
- Line<br />
- Fill<br />
- Fill+line<br />
- Offset Fill<br />
<br />
'''Line'''<br />
Line wordt gebruikt voor het snijden of om te scoren (op dit laatste kom ik later terug)<br />
Snijden doe je door met voldoende vermogen en aangepaste snelheid te snijden.<br />
Voor 4mm populieren multiplex gebruik je bijv. 8mm/s en 100% vermogen.<br />
De lasercutter is zo aangepast dat 100% vermogen de maximum toegestane maximale stroom door de buis stuurt (22mA).<br />
Je kan dus niet (meer) de laserbuis kapot maken door er 30mA doorheen te jagen (dit was eerder wel het geval).<br />
<br />
Scoren is Line maar bewust op een lager vermogen, soms wil je een detail aanbrengen maar niet graveren (bijv. omdat het te object heel groot is en graveren 2 uur zou duren).<br />
Dan kan je dus op laag vermogen (20-30%) en wat hogere snelheid (30mm/s) "snijden". Je komt dan niet door het materiaal heen, maar brengt snel tekst/vormen aan die op graveren veel langer zouden duren.<br />
Er zijn ook speciale single line fonts (link volgt) zodat je heel snel leesbare tekst aanbrengt, zonder te hoeven wachten op lange gravures.<br />
<br />
'''Fill'''<br />
Fill is graveren. Fill gebruik je als je wil graveren, doe je meerdere passes kan je zgn. Diep graveren. Diepe gravures kan je bijv. met verf vullen, na opdrogen kan je dan je werkstuk opschuren, dit gebruik je bijv. voor Huisnummer bordjes. Graveren ondanks dat het op hogere snelheid gaat dan snijden/scoren, duurt langer omdat de hele afbeelding in bijv. 0.1mm lijnen wordt gegraveerd (254dpi is 0,1mm, 127dpi is 0,2mm). Stel je wil iets van 10cm hoog graveren, dan moet de laser 100mm/0.1 is 1000 keer over het object (500 keer heen en terug). Stel dat je graveert op 40mm/s dan duurt die 2.5sec per pass, dus 5 seconden heen en terug, en dat keer 500, dus 2500 seconden, dus je bent dan ruim 40 minuten onderweg. Waarbij nog geen eens rekening is gehouden met de omkering van de kop. In de preview (ALT-P of televisie icoontje) kan je een inschatting zien hoe lang het graveren duurt. Omdat de Bitlair lasercutter relatief langzaam omkeert (lage acceleratie) is dit soms rooskleurig. Houd hier rekening mee.<br />
Kortom graveren is niet snel , wel mooi (kan het zijn).<br />
<br />
'''Fill+Line'''<br />
Fill+Line is een combinatie van de 2 voorgaande Layer types: graveren en lijn.<br />
Eerst wordt het object gegraveerd en daarna volgt een snelle pass met een enkele lijn.<br />
Soms wordt het gegraveerde object hier wat strakker van, de rafelige randen worden "rechtgetrokken" doordat de laser er ook nog een lijn omheen graveert.<br />
<br />
'''Offset Fill'''<br />
Offset fill is graveren middels een line (score) die binnen in het object begint en dan steeds groter wordt. Stel je offset filled een vierkantje, dan begint hij midden in het vierkantje met een klein puntje, waar de laser vervolgens een klein vierkantje omheenzet en dan in 1 continue lijn steeds eromheen blijft gaan, totdat het hele object gevuld is.<br />
<br />
Als je een gecombineerde job (graveren/snijden) hebt, zorg dan dat de graveerlaag eerst wordt uitgevoerd.<br />
Je kan dit doen door in het Layers menu met de pijltjes achter de layers de lagen in de juiste volgorde te zetten:<br />
<br />
[[File:Layers.jpg]]<br />
<br />
= Machine aanzetten =<br />
<br />
Schakel de stroom in naar de lasersnijder (schakelaar achteraan), hierna zal de machine inschakelen en het beveiligings-menu tonen. <br />
<br />
Bied nu je iButton aan. Hierna zal de lasercutter inschakelen en is deze klaar om jobs te ontvangen.<br />
<br />
[[File:Ruida 2021.png||300px]]<br />
<br />
= Job uitvoeren =<br />
<br />
Als je je materiaal hebt geplaatst, de klep naar beneden hebt gedaan, je opdracht hebt verstuurd en de HALC hem heeft ontvangen. Dan bied je de iButton aan, Deelnemers hun eigen en gasten de Guest button, dan druk je op de rode knop en de laser doet het werk. <br />
<br />
Kijk niet te lang rechtstreeks in de laser. Dit kan leiden tot permanente blindheid. Laat de machine NOOIT alleen terwijl deze bezig is met een opdracht. Je weet nooit wat het effect precies is de eerste keer als je met een bepaald materiaal werk en de laser heeft af en toe keuren.<br />

Stel dat je graveert op 40mm/s dan duurt die 2.5sec per pass, dus 5 seconden heen en terug, en dat keer 500, dus 2500 seconden, dus je bent dan ruim 40 minuten onderweg. Waarbij nog geen eens rekening is gehouden met de omkering van de kop. In de preview (ALT-P of televisie icoontje) kan je een inschatting zien hoe lang het graveren duurt. Omdat de Bitlair lasercutter relatief langzaam omkeert (lage acceleratie) is dit soms rooskleurig. Houd hier rekening mee.<br />
Kortom graveren is niet snel , wel mooi (kan het zijn).<br />
<br />
'''Fill+Line'''<br />
Fill+Line is een combinatie van de 2 voorgaande Layer types: graveren en lijn.<br />
Eerst wordt het object gegraveerd en daarna volgt een snelle pass met een enkele lijn.<br />
Soms wordt het gegraveerde object hier wat strakker van, de rafelige randen worden "rechtgetrokken" doordat de laser er ook nog een lijn omheen graveert.<br />
<br />
'''Offset Fill'''<br />
Offset fill is graveren middels een line (score) die binnen in het object begint en dan steeds groter wordt. Stel je offset filled een vierkantje, dan begint hij midden in het vierkantje met een klein puntje, waar de laser vervolgens een klein vierkantje omheenzet en dan in 1 continue lijn steeds eromheen blijft gaan, totdat het hele object gevuld is.<br />
<br />
Als je een gecombineerde job (graveren/snijden) hebt, zorg dan dat de graveerlaag eerst wordt uitgevoerd.<br />
Je kan dit doen door in het Layers menu met de pijltjes achter de layers de lagen in de juiste volgorde te zetten:<br />
<br />

= Machine aanzetten =<br />
<br />
Schakel de stroom in naar de lasersnijder (schakelaar achteraan), hierna zal de machine inschakelen en het beveiligings-menu tonen. <br />
<br />
Bied nu je iButton aan. Hierna zal de lasercutter inschakelen en is deze klaar om jobs te ontvangen.<br />
<br />

<br />
= Job uitvoeren =<br />
<br />
Als je je materiaal hebt geplaatst, de klep naar beneden hebt gedaan, je opdracht hebt verstuurd en de HALC hem heeft ontvangen. Dan bied je de iButton aan, Deelnemers hun eigen en gasten de Guest button, dan druk je op de rode knop en de laser doet het werk. <br />
<br />
Kijk niet te lang rechtstreeks in de laser. Dit kan leiden tot permanente blindheid. Laat de machine NOOIT alleen terwijl deze bezig is met een opdracht. Je weet nooit wat het effect precies is de eerste keer als je met een bepaald materiaal werk en de laser heeft af en toe keuren.<br />

<hr />
<div>Met de aankondiging van de regering om de Coronamaatregelen te versoepelen is het voor Bitlair weer mogelijk om per 1 juni weer voorzichtig te openen voor deelnemers en bezoekers. Omdat de crisis nog verre van voorbij is gaan we echter wel een aantal maatregelen treffen om het risico op verspreiding van het Coronavirus te reduceren.<br />
<br />
Met deze maatregelen hopen we het risico op een eventuele besmetting te reduceren, we kunnen op geen enkele manier garanderen dat het 100% veilig is, dat is ook niet realistisch. We verzoeken je zelf verantwoordelijkheid te nemen voor je eigen gezondheid en niet te komen indien je het een te groot risico acht.<br />
<br />
Zie je dat iemand de regels overtreedt, spreek deze persoon erop aan.<br />
<br />
== Hygiëne ==<br />
De [https://www.rivm.nl/coronavirus-covid-19 standaard RIVM regels] moeten in acht worden genomen:<br />
* Was vaak je handen.<br />
* Hoest en nies in de binnenkant van je elleboog.<br />
* Gebruik papieren zakdoekjes om je neus te snuiten en gooi deze daarna weg.<br />
* Schud geen handen.<br />
* Houd 1,5 meter afstand (2 armlengtes) van anderen.<br />
<br />
Wordt je ziek en vermoed je dat je het virus onder de leden hebt? Laat dit direct aan het bestuur weten (bestuur at bitlair dot nl) of via een bestuurslid. Laat ook weten wanneer je in de laatste twee weken op de space bent geweest, dan kunnen wij andere deelnemers met wie je mogelijk contact hebt gehad op de hoogte stellen.<br />
<br />
== Maximum aanwezigen ==<br />
Er mogen niet meer dan 12 personen tegelijkertijd aanwezig zijn in de space. Dit doen we om te zorgen dat de 1.5 meter makkelijk hanteerbaar blijft. Om te zorgen dat iedereen een kans krijgt om te spacen gaan we voor nu een reserveringsysteem hanteren waarin iedere deelnemer 1 dag van de week mag claimen om aanwezig te zijn in de space. Dit wordt voorlopig je nieuwe standaard dag, de rest van de dagen mag je tot op nader order niet naar de space komen. Ook willen we je vragen om niet te wisselen van dag. Indien blijkt dat je toch wil wisselen door omstandigheden, overleg dit dan even met het het bestuur.<br />
<br />
Een bijkomend voordeel van het reserveringsysteem is dat het eventuele infecties beperkt blijven tot 12 personen. (mits er goed wordt schoongemaakt!)<br />
<br />
Non-deelnemers zijn welkom voor een rondleiding, maar ze wel van tevoren vragen of er plek in de space is. Mensen die niet via andere deelnemers willen komen kijken kunnen terecht bij het bestuur.<br />
<br />
=== Reserveersysteem spacedagen ===<br />
Claim een dag door je naam of pseudoniem in de tabel te zetten. Indien je geen Wiki account hebt, maak er een aan of vraag iemand anders om je in de tabel te zetten.<br />
<br />
Omdat woensdag en zondag populair zijn verzoeken we je indien mogelijk een andere dag te kiezen om rekening te houden met diegene met een volle agenda. We houden vrijdag en zaterdag even vrij voor DJO.<br />

<br />
NB: Vrijdag en zaterdag zijn niet beschikbaar omdat deze beschikbaar zijn gesteld aan DJO.<br />
<br />
== Schoonmaken ==<br />
* Maak bij vertrek de plek waaraan je gezeten hebt schoon, inclusief evt. gebruikt gereedschap<br />
* Als je de laatste bent die de space verlaat maak je alle deurklinken, raamklinken, barcodescanner, toetsenbord revbank en deurklink koel/vries combinatie schoon met 70% IPA oplossing<br />
* Laat de deuren zoveel mogelijk open ivm goede ventilatie en het niet aan te hoeven raken van de klink<br />
* Zet bij binnenkomst alle ramen open ivm ventilatie. Bij vertrek, sluit alle ramen en neem de klinken af met een doekje/tissue met 70% IPA oplossing<br />
* Laat het licht op het toilet aan zodat de ventilatie actief blijft<br />
* De wc’s worden minimaal 1x in de week schoon gemaakt. Gekeken wordt nog hoe we dit precies gaan aanpakken, dit is afhankelijk van de drukte.<br />
<br />
== Personenteller ==<br />
We hebben een systeem opgezet om aan de hand van spacenet te zien hoeveel mensen aanwezig zijn in de space. Meedoen is vrijwillig, maar je kan ons enorm helpen door zowel jouw laptop als telefoon in te stellen om te verbinden met spacenet. Hiermee kunnen we zien wat de bezetting is over een langere periode wat ons kan helpen met het opstellen van verdere versoepelingen. Het systeem houdt alleen het aantal unieke verbindingen bij, niet wie op welk tijdstip verbonden was.<br />
<br />
De teller is te vinden op het dashboard: https://dashboard.bitlair.nl/<br />
<br />
Weet jij jouw spacenet wachtwoord niet meer? Neem contact op met Arjan (ak47 at bitlair dot nl)<br />
<br />
== Bar ==<br />
De bar is nieuw voorzien van een scanner die automatisch iedere barcode scant die je er voor houdt. Hierdoor is het voor het grootste deel van de producten niet meer nodig om de scanner vast te pakken. We hebben voor alle deelnemers een barcode geprint om bij je te houden. Plak deze op bijvoorbeel je telefoon of in je portemonee om voor de scanner te houden.<br />
<br />
Voor smomige producten of transacties is het nog steeds nodig om de scanner uit de houder te nemen of iets op het toetsenbord te tikken. Gebruik een stuk keukenrol om de scanner te pakken. Indien je de scanner wil schoonmaken met IPA, let goed op dat je niks op het scanvenster spuit, tot het spul verdampt is kan de scanner onbruikbaar zijn. Je kan altijd 70% IPA op het toetsenbord spuiten.<br />
<br />
Het is eveneens mogelijk om een bank terminal via SSH te krijgen zodat je via je eigen laptop commando's kan uitvoeren. Vraag op de space naar de host en credentials.<br />
<br />
== Eten ==<br />
* Bij het opwarmen van eten, gebruik alleen de magnetron. Dus geen maaltijden koken/bereiden op de space!<br />
* Het tosti-ijzer is ook beschikbaar mits deze schoongemaakt wordt.<br />
* Na gebruik, handvaten/knoppen schoonmaken met IPA wanneer apparaat afgekoeld is<br />
* Maak gebruik van normaal bestek en was dit zelf af met heet water en afwasmiddel<br />
<br />
== Toekomstige versoepelingen ==<br />
Vanwege de onzekere aard van de situatie stellen we geen termijn aan nieuwe versoepelingen. Tevens sluiten we niet uit dat we deze versoepelingen gedeeltelijk of geheel moeten terugdraaien indien de situatie in Nederland verslechterd.<br />
<br />
Wel zijn we optimistisch over in de toekomst verder te kunnen versoepelen, echter zal dit allemaal afhangen van druk vanuit de overheid en de effecten in de praktijk van onze nieuwe versoepelingen.<br />

=== Introduction ===<br />
'''Disclaimer: This is my own project Toool and Bitlair are not responsible for the project nor the outcome.'''<br />
<br />
My name is Jan-Willem, member of Bitlair and Toool. Toool is The Open Organisation of Lockpickers, a hobby club for lock and physical security nerds. Any nerd, hacker, maker or security interested that wants to learn lockpicking as a hobby is welcome to join Toool see Toool.nl for details and send a mail to amsterdam [at] or eindhoven [] Toool punkt nl. (If you have ill-intend please don't come to the meetup you'll be disappointed.) <br />
<br />
I'm promoting lockpicking as a hobby whenever possible at events and conferences like HITB, HackerHotel and Weekend van de Wetenschap. Mainly by demonstrating and teaching others at a lockpicking village. For this I need many many locks and lockpicks. Lockpicks that can handle abuse and are not expensive. If they break or go missing it won't be a problem. (Note: Please don't steal my picks. A cheap set from china will not cost much and will get you started.)<br />
<br />
Recently I came into contact with a scrap iron dealer that had an interesting proposition for me. He had 20kg of lockpicks or about 4000 for sale. We struck a deal and 20kg of scrap metal arrived my house. As with every project scalability is a problem. Making one of something might take a day, making 10 a week but a thousand? The same with this project: cleaning every lockpick myself will take months. Shrink-wrap handles alone will take 400m of shrink-wrap tubing. That's why I decided to bag the picks by 500g and attempt to sell them to lockpicking groups around the world. At this moment I've sold 15kg of the lockpicks.<br />
<br />
I've also created bags of 250g for every hackerspace in the Netherlands. These will be delivered by hacker mail in the following days/months/years depending on location.<br />
<br />
=== Grab bag ===<br />
The bags contain 250g of lockpicks, that's about 50 lockpicks. This is enough to get you started. For most lock you only need one lockpick and one turning tool. Lockpicking tutorials are plentiful so I won't go into detail on how to use the tools. (see resources at the bottom of the page.) The bags do not contain enough turning tools so I'd suggest making a few yourself from wiper blade inserts or street sweeper bristles. Just a few will get you started.<br />
<br />
Not all of the lockpicks will be useful, with a Dremel or grinding wheel you can make these useful but that will take some skill or at least picking experience. aMore on this later. I'd prefer if every hackerspace creates a box or Samla with lockpicks and locks to have lockpicks always available. Many Hackerspaces already have a lockpicking box, may these picks be an addition to the kit.<br />
<br />
[[File:Lockpicks Packaged.jpg|800px]]<br />
<br />
=== Cleaning process ===<br />
The lockpicks are rusty but clean up nicely. Most of it is surface rust. I use a cleaning pad unlike Scotchbright, either for metal or wood it does not matter much. (Cleaning sponges with a rough pad are not really useful.) Use a flat table and place the lockpick tip in between the folded pad. Lightly move the lockpick up and down to remove the rust. Every lockpick will take about 30s of work. It does not have to be bright and shiny, just removing the rust will make it useful.<br />
<br />
I'd like to shrinkwrap the handles, this is not necessary but will make them look a lot nicer.<br />

<br />
'''After picture:'''<br />
<br />
[[File:Cleaned lockpicks.jpg|800px]]<br />
<br />
The lockpicks on the left are hooks and are the most useful. In the middle are rakes, use them sparingly and with little force. The picks on the right are most likely useless. (When the lockpick looks like a harpoon it's not a lockpick but a broken key extractor, it will ruin your locks if used as a lockpick.)<br />

Many Hackerspaces already have a lockpicking box, may these picks be an addition to the kit.<br />

<br />
=== Cleaning process ===<br />
The lockpicks are rusty but clean up nicely. Most of it is surface rust. I use a cleaning pad unlike Scotchbright, either for metal or wood it does not matter much. (Cleaning sponges with a rough pad are not really useful.) Use a flat table and place the lockpick tip in between the folded pad. Lightly move the lockpick up and down to remove the rust. Every lockpick will take about 30s of work. It does not have to be bright and shiny, just removing the rust will make it useful.<br />
<br />
I'd like to shrinkwrap the handles, this is not necessary but will make them look a lot nicer.<br />

<br />
The lockpicks on the left are hooks and are the most useful. In the middle are rakes, use them sparingly and with little force. The picks on the right are most likely useless. (When the lockpick looks like a harpoon it's not a lockpick but a broken key extractor, it will ruin your locks if used as a lockpick.)<br />

=== Introduction ===<br />
'''Disclaimer: This is my own project Toool and Bitlair are not responsible for the project nor the outcome.'''<br />
<br />
My name is Jan-Willem, member of Bitlair and Toool. Toool is The Open Organisation of Lockpickers, a hobby club for lock and physical security nerds. Any nerd, hacker, maker or security interested that wants to learn lockpicking as a hobby is welcome to join Toool see Toool.nl for details and send a mail to amsterdam [at] or eindhoven [] Toool punkt nl. (If you have ill-intend please don't come to the meetup you'll be disappointed.) <br />
<br />
I'm promoting lockpicking as a hobby whenever possible at events and conferences like HITB, HackerHotel and Weekend van de Wetenschap. Mainly by demonstrating and teaching others at a lockpicking village. For this I need many many locks and lockpicks. Lockpicks that can handle abuse and are not expensive. If they break or go missing it won't be a problem. (Note: Please don't steal my picks. A cheap set from china will not cost much and will get you started.)<br />
<br />
Recently I came into contact with a scrap iron dealer that had an interesting proposition for me. He had 20kg of lockpicks or about 4000 for sale. We struck a deal and 20kg of scrap metal arrived my house. As with every project scalability is a problem. Making one of something might take a day, making 10 a week but a thousand? The same with this project: cleaning every lockpick myself will take months. Shrink-wrap handles alone will take 400m of shrink-wrap tubing. That's why I decided to bag the picks by 500g and attempt to sell them to lockpicking groups around the world. At this moment I've sold 15kg of the lockpicks.<br />
<br />
I've also created bags of 250g for every hackerspace in the Netherlands. These will be delivered by hacker mail in the following days/months/years depending on location.<br />
<br />
=== Grab bag ===<br />
The bags contain 250g of lockpicks, that's about 50 lockpicks. This is enough to get you started. For most lock you only need one lockpick and one turning tool. Lockpicking tutorials are plentiful so I won't go into detail on how to use the tools. (see resources at the bottom of the page.) The bags do not contain enough turning tools so I'd suggest making a few yourself from wiper blade inserts or street sweeper bristles. Just a few will get you started.<br />
<br />
Not all of the lockpicks will be useful, with a Dremel or grinding wheel you can make these useful but that will take some skill or at least picking experience. aMore on this later.

The bags contain 250g of lockpicks, that's about 50 lockpicks. This is enough to get you started. For most lock you only need one lockpick and one turning tool. Lockpicking tutorials are plentiful so I won't go into detail on how to use the tools. (see resources at the bottom of the page.) The bags do not contain enough turning tools so I'd suggest making a few yourself from wiper blade inserts or street sweeper bristles. Just a few will get you started.<br />
<br />
Not all of the lockpicks will be useful, with a Dremel or grinding wheel you can make these useful but that will take some skill or at least picking experience. aMore on this later. I'd prefer if every hackerspace creates a box or Samla with lockpicks and locks to have lockpicks always available. Many Hackerspaces already have a lockpicking box, may these picks be an addition to the kit.<br />
<br />
[[File:Lockpicks Packaged.jpg|800px]]<br />
<br />
=== Cleaning process ===<br />
The lockpicks are rusty but clean up nicely. Most of it is surface rust. I use a cleaning pad unlike Scotchbright, either for metal or wood it does not matter much. (Cleaning sponges with a rough pad are not really useful.) Use a flat table and place the lockpick tip in between the folded pad. Lightly move the lockpick up and down to remove the rust. Every lockpick will take about 30s of work. It does not have to be bright and shiny, just removing the rust will make it useful.<br />
<br />
I'd like to shrinkwrap the handles, this is not necessary but will make them look a lot nicer.<br />

<br />
The lockpicks on the left are hooks and are the most useful. In the middle are rakes, use them sparingly and with little force. The picks on the right are most likely useless. (When the lockpick looks like a harpoon it's not a lockpick but a broken key extractor, it will ruin your locks if used as a lockpick.)<br />

'''Disclaimer: This is my own project Toool and Bitlair are not responsible for the project nor the outcome.'''<br />
<br />
My name is Jan-Willem, member of Bitlair and Toool. Toool is The Open Organisation of Lockpickers, a hobby club for lock and physical security nerds. Any nerd, hacker, maker or security interested that wants to learn lockpicking as a hobby is welcome to join Toool see Toool.nl for details and send a mail to amsterdam [at] or eindhoven [] Toool punkt nl. (If you have ill-intend please don't come to the meetup you'll be disappointed.) <br />
<br />
I'm promoting lockpicking as a hobby whenever possible at events and conferences like HITB, HackerHotel and Weekend van de Wetenschap. Mainly by demonstrating and teaching others at a lockpicking village. For this I need many many locks and lockpicks. Lockpicks that can handle abuse and are not expensive. If they break or go missing it won't be a problem. (Note: Please don't steal my picks. A cheap set from china will not cost much and will get you started.)<br />
<br />
Recently I came into contact with a scrap iron dealer that had an interesting proposition for me. He had 20kg of lockpicks or about 4000 for sale. We struck a deal and 20kg of scrap metal arrived my house. As with every project scalability is a problem. Making one of something might take a day, making 10 a week but a thousand? The same with this project: cleaning every lockpick myself will take months. Shrink-wrap handles alone will take 400m of shrink-wrap tubing. That's why I decided to bag the picks by 500g and attempt to sell them to lockpicking groups around the world. At this moment I've sold 15kg of the lockpicks.<br />
<br />
I've also created bags of 250g for every hackerspace in the Netherlands. These will be delivered by hacker mail in the following days/months/years depending on location.<br />

That's why I decided to bag the picks by 500g and attempt to sell them to lockpicking groups around the world. At this moment I've sold 15kg of the lockpicks.<br />
<br />
I've also created bags of 250g for every hackerspace in the Netherlands. These will be delivered by hacker mail in the following days/months/years depending on location.<br />
<br />
=== Grab bag ===<br />
The bags contain 250g of lockpicks, that's about 50 lockpicks. This is enough to get you started. For most lock you only need one lockpick and one turning tool. Lockpicking tutorials are plentiful so I won't go into detail on how to use the tools. (see resources at the bottom of the page.) The bags do not contain enough turning tools so I'd suggest making a few yourself from wiper blade inserts or street sweeper bristles. Just a few will get you started.<br />
<br />
Not all of the lockpicks will be useful, with a Dremel or grinding wheel you can make these useful but that will take some skill or at least picking experience. aMore on this later. I'd prefer if every hackerspace creates a box or Samla with lockpicks and locks to have lockpicks always available. Many Hackerspaces already have a lockpicking box, may these picks be an addition to the kit.<br />
<br />
[[File:Lockpicks Packaged.jpg|800px]]<br />
<br />
=== Cleaning process ===<br />
The lockpicks are rusty but clean up nicely. Most of it is surface rust. I use a cleaning pad unlike Scotchbright, either for metal or wood it does not matter much. (Cleaning sponges with a rough pad are not really useful.) Use a flat table and place the lockpick tip in between the folded pad. Lightly move the lockpick up and down to remove the rust. Every lockpick will take about 30s of work. It does not have to be bright and shiny, just removing the rust will make it useful.<br />
<br />
I'd like to shrinkwrap the handles, this is not necessary but will make them look a lot nicer.<br />

My name is Jan-Willem, member of Bitlair and Toool. Toool is The Open Organisation of Lockpickers, a hobby club for lock and physical security nerds. Any nerd, hacker, maker or security interested that wants to learn lockpicking as a hobby is welcome to join Toool see Toool.nl for details and send a mail to amsterdam [at] or eindhoven [] Toool punkt nl. (If you have ill-intend please don't come to the meetup you'll be disappointed.) <br />
<br />
I'm promoting lockpicking as a hobby whenever possible at events and conferences like HITB, HackerHotel and Weekend van de Wetenschap. Mainly by demonstrating and teaching others at a lockpicking village. For this I need many many locks and lockpicks. Lockpicks that can handle abuse and are not expensive. If they break or go missing it won't be a problem. (Note: Please don't steal my picks. A cheap set from china will not cost much and will get you started.)<br />

'''Disclaimer: This is my own project Toool and Bitlair are not responsible for the project nor the outcome.'''<br />
<br />
My name is Jan-Willem, member of Bitlair and Toool. Toool is The Open Organisation of Lockpickers, a hobby club for lock and physical security nerds. Any nerd, hacker, maker or security interested that wants to learn lockpicking as a hobby is welcome to join Toool see Toool.nl for details and send a mail to amsterdam [at] or eindhoven [] Toool punkt nl. (If you have ill-intend please don't come to the meetup you'll be disappointed.) <br />
<br />
I'm promoting lockpicking as a hobby whenever possible at events and conferences like HITB, HackerHotel and Weekend van de Wetenschap. Mainly by demonstrating and teaching others at a lockpicking village. For this I need many many locks and lockpicks. Lockpicks that can handle abuse and are not expensive. If they break or go missing it won't be a problem. (Note: Please don't steal my picks. A cheap set from china will not cost much and will get you started.)<br />
<br />
Recently I came into contact with a scrap iron dealer that had an interesting proposition for me. He had 20kg of lockpicks or about 4000 for sale. We struck a deal and 20kg of scrap metal arrived my house. As with every project scalability is a problem. Making one of something might take a day, making 10 a week but a thousand? The same with this project: cleaning every lockpick myself will take months. Shrink-wrap handles alone will take 400m of shrink-wrap tubing. That's why I decided to bag the picks by 500g and attempt to sell them to lockpicking groups around the world. At this moment I've sold 15kg of the lockpicks.<br />
<br />
I've also created bags of 250g for every hackerspace in the Netherlands. These will be delivered by hacker mail in the following days/months/years depending on location.<br />
<br />
=== Grab bag ===<br />
The bags contain 250g of lockpicks, that's about 50 lockpicks. This is enough to get you started. For most lock you only need one lockpick and one turning tool. Lockpicking tutorials are plentiful so I won't go into detail on how to use the tools. (see resources at the bottom of the page.) The bags do not contain enough turning tools so I'd suggest making a few yourself from wiper blade inserts or street sweeper bristles. Just a few will get you started.<br />
<br />
Not all of the lockpicks will be useful, with a Dremel or grinding wheel you can make these useful but that will take some skill or et least picking experience. More on this later. I'd prefer if every hackerspace creates a box or Samla with lockpicks and locks to have lockpicks always available. Many Hackerspaces already have a lockpicking box, may these picks be an addition to the kit.<br />
<br />
[[File:Lockpicks Packaged.jpg|800px]]<br />
<br />
=== Cleaning process ===<br />
The lockpicks are rusty but clean up nicely. Most of it is surface rust. I use a cleaning pad unlike Scotchbright, either for metal or wood it does not matter much. (Cleaning sponges with a rough pad are not really useful.) Use a flat table and place the lockpick tip in between the folded pad. Lightly move the lockpick up and down to remove the rust. Every lockpick will take about 30s of work. It does not have to be bright and shiny, just removing the rust will make it useful.<br />
<br />
I'd like to shrinkwrap the handles, this is not necessary but will make them look a lot nicer.<br />

<br />
The lockpicks on the left are hooks and are the most useful. In the middle are rakes, use them sparingly and with little force. The picks on the right are most likely useless. <br />

I'm promoting lockpicking as a hobby whenever possible at events and conferences like HITB, HackerHotel and Weekend van de Wetenschap. Mainly by demonstrating and teaching others at a lockpicking village. For this I need many many locks and lockpicks. Lockpicks that can handle abuse and are not expensive. If they break or go missing it won't be a problem. (Note: Please don't steal my picks. A cheap set from china will not cost much and will get you started.)<br />
<br />
Recently I came into contact with a scrap iron dealer that had an interesting proposition for me. He had 20kg of lockpicks or about 4000 for sale. We struck a deal and 20kg of scrap metal arrived my house. As with every project scalability is a problem. Making one of something might take a day, making 10 a week but a thousand? The same with this project: cleaning every lockpick myself will take months. Shrink-wrap handles alone will take 400m of shrink-wrap tubing. That's why I decided to bag the picks by 500g and attempt to sell them to lockpicking groups around the world. At this moment I've sold 15kg of the lockpicks.<br />
<br />
[[File:Lockpicks Packaged.jpg:800px]]<br />
<br />
I've also created bags of 250g for every hackerspace in the Netherlands. These will be delivered by hacker mail in the following days/months/years depending on location.<br />
<br />
Disclaimer: This is my own project Toool and Bitlair are not responsible for the project nor the (hopefully good) outcome.<br />
<br />
=== Grab bag ===<br />
The bags contain 250g of lockpicks, that's about 50 lockpicks. This is enough to get you started. For most lock you only need one lockpick and one turning tool. Lockpicking tutorials are plentiful so I won't go into detail on how to use the tools. (see resources at the bottom of the page.) The bags do not contain enough turning tools so I'd suggest making a few yourself from wiper blade inserts or street sweeper bristles. Just a few will get you started.<br />
<br />
Not all of the lockpicks will be useful, with a Dremel or grinding wheel you can make these useful but that will take some skill or et least picking experience. More on this later. I'd prefer if every hackerspace creates a box or Samla with lockpicks and locks to have lockpicks always available. Many Hackerspaces already have a lockpicking box, may these picks be an addition to the kit. <br />
<br />
=== Cleaning process ===<br />
The lockpicks are rusty but clean up nicely. Most of it is surface rust. I use a cleaning pad unlike Scotchbright, either for metal or wood it does not matter much. (Cleaning sponges with a rough pad are not really useful.) Use a flat table and place the lockpick tip in between the folded pad. Lightly move the lockpick up and down to remove the rust. Every lockpick will take about 30s of work. It does not have to be bright and shiny, just removing the rust will make it useful.<br />
<br />
I'd like to shrinkwrap the handles, this is not necessary but will make them look a lot nicer.<br />
