MASSIVE SNIPPY
DAMN! Thats different! No wonder it took you so long. I was wondering what
you were up to :-) ...just another way of figuring out the extremely complicated
task of making a boiled egg :-P
I tend to stick exclusively to trains (you know that quite well) and I know
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about robotics, but I can still appreciate this one. I could
use these, they are hehe cheap and I do like boiled eggs and salt :-d One
question: Have you had problems with melting ABS? one would imagine them melting
at least a bit at that tempreature, given theyre so near the heat.

Hello Samarth
Thanks for the comments. Me too, I was thinking I could have get some melting
problems. I did some gradually tests and to my surprised, despite the high heat
I damaged absolutely no parts!
The two support beam above are located to high, so they are out of danger. I
also have a pretty powerfull range hood, and needless to say it was working at
full power during the use of the Egglift. ;o)
As you can see on this picture, this sensor received some heat:

About the ABS, I was searchin the web site of this german guy who did some
test on LEGo and to the melting point ... if someone kept it in his bookmarks
..

I know exactly what what youre talking about! I made some search but didnt
found it do. :o( But if I recall these pictures were pretty painfull to watch!
;o)

I think it was Ben Beneke if thats any help, but his site has moved fairly
recently.

Phew, I can feel the heat! What was the reading recorded by the temperature
sensor?
As I recall the LEGO Temperature sensor range is from -20 degrees Celsius to +50
degrees Celsius.
Would the sensor go off range or would the ABS melt first?

The range of the Lego temperature Sensor is -20o C to 70 o C. You can see one
reading below. As you can see, Im almost off limit.
|
Would the sensor go off range or would the ABS melt first?
|
From my test, definitely the sensor would go off range first. Probably thats
the reason why TLC limited the range of this sensor to + 70o C.
Cheers.

Thanks!
And from the other post (http://news.lugnet.com/robotics/?n=23345), it appears
that the ABS will start to give way around 80 deg Celsius.
Btw, I think your invention could also do hot dogs and bacon rashers for a
fuller breakfast ;-)
