• Scam Alert. Members are reminded to NOT send money to buy anything. Don't buy things remote and have it shipped - go get it yourself, pay in person, and take your equipment with you. Scammers have burned people on this forum. Urgency, secrecy, excuses, selling for friend, newish members, FUD, are RED FLAGS. A video conference call is not adequate assurance. Face to face interactions are required. Please report suspicions to the forum admins. Stay Safe - anyone can get scammed.
  • Several Regions have held meetups already, but others are being planned or are evaluating the interest. The Calgary Area Meetup is set for Saturday July 12th at 10am. The signup thread is here! Arbutus has also explored interest in a Fraser Valley meetup but it seems members either missed his thread or had other plans. Let him know if you are interested in a meetup later in the year by posting here! Slowpoke is trying to pull together an Ottawa area meetup later this summer. No date has been selected yet, so let him know if you are interested here! We are not aware of any other meetups being planned this year. If you are interested in doing something in your area, let everyone know and make it happen! Meetups are a great way to make new machining friends and get hands on help in your area. Don’t be shy, sign up and come, or plan your own meetup!

    Really ?

    I got some of those deer avoidance whistle things in an auction junk buy, the ones you stick on the front fenders of your vehicle. Do these things actually work? I have seen them for sale for many years but never figured they would work. Anybody ever use them?

    Rain in Edmonton

    No crop loss likely, it soaks in fast around here. The only pooled water was in the hard packed yard and even that soaks in within the day or so.

    Rain in Edmonton

    I always use the imperial system for all measurements. When my kids and grandkids start telling me stuff in mm or cm i just zone out. The only bit of metric i use is in certain calibers of pew,pews, refering to 6.5mm, and many others. I guess i'm just and old dinosaur stuck in the past...

    I would go with the salami, ditch the cream cheese though. SWMBO ate that stuff all the time, i left it to her.

    Hmm, can one believe the internet? 20%? 30% 90%? There is a lot of stuff on the web and more loaded every day, a lot is very questionable. Just my opinion though. :)

    History (ww2)

    I found some Canadian ID tags in a auction purchase a number of years ago. Was surprised to find they were made of leather.

    Terrible QC - Toilet Edition

    I have a marble tub, that sucker takes a lot of water to warm up so you can soak in it. Took 4 men to lug it in to the house, i've been debating taking it out in chunks. :rolleyes:
