• 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!

    Linda might put in a few pieces but she's not that much into puzzles other than to torture me. Of course I also occasionally torture myself. I had 3 of these made. The other two went to people who made a significant contribution to making the necklace lights for the Lions Gate Bridge. This...

    Yeah there are some puzzles where it's really just a mechanical process trying each one until the correct one fits. Sometimes I think my wife hates me... From 2016.

    I'd look at the hand wheels first for markings. Next I'd consider just replacing the screws with ball screws setting the stage for CNC.

    Stepperhead CNC Lathe-Mill

    Interesting project but I think I'll keep my South Bend and my Gingery.

    Nice. Although I thought you had one already. What's the first project for it?

    Metal finishes

    As I recall, from many many moons ago, chrome plating starts with copper, then nickel and then finally chrome. But that's from very long ago. Things may have changed.

    They seem to be a reliable supplier. I just received 20 Italtronics boxes shipped from Poland FedEx.

    Oh Canada

    Well the thing is the "fake news" doesn't tell you about the tsunami's, hurricanes and tornadoes that we experience every summer. They accidentally let slip out the 1996 snowfall that was deep enough to completely cover cars. Best not to come to Vancouver Island........................

    Oh Canada

    Lucky you. I'm on Vancouver Island. No one should move here. Terrible place to live. Last place in the world to visit. You have to risk sinking on a ferry to get here or run away. Weather is terrible. Pollution etc. Don't come here...
