• 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 Ontario GTA West area meetup is planned for Saturday April 26th at Greasemonkeys shop in Aylmer Ontario. If you are interested and haven’t signed up yet, click 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!

    Shaper $375

    I see it as a light duty 20" stroke shaper. It is perhaps 20% bigger bulk wise than the one I had which was a 16".

    Deckel jig grinder, whatever that is. Vancouver (Delta) BC, offers.

    I'm going out there at the end of May to see what it can do besides jig grinder functions.

    Canox C250E AC-DC Welder

    Years ago, I removed the cowling on my Electrohome 225AC welder and found not only dust but the outer winding of the variable transformer had hundreds of weld spatter crapola welded to it. I spent a couple of hours removing them with a sharp chisel and hammer. I don't know why it didn't short out.

    I have five of these, dead sharp. When I get back from Kelowna, I'll sell them for scrap unless someone buys them. Each one weighs just over 2 lbs.
