• 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!

    Really ?

    This is another silly one. Empty lot that will get a six story apartment block on it. No road to the right and no bus service on that road.

    Not sure if I would rely on the EPA here. We have a temp truck whilst the lovelies truck is off the road. The evil bastard is always trying to lock us in. It goes click and in unison we say "fuck off truck" ( can I say fuck off on here ?)

    Really ?

    One of our local, very pro development municipalities is the national capital of silly signs. Several years ago now a new connector road was put in. The last 150 meters of this 4 lane section of the road lies between a traffic circle and a traffic lighted "T" intersection where you can turn left...

    And sweetie had no problems with that van and she'll get seasick if she looks into her teacup too soon after stirring.

    Really ?

    I guess the ultimate in this vane is the Boeing 737-800 Max. A computer system that is so proprietary that the flight crews aren't even aware of it and have no way to overide it if they did. Anyone want a pilot less plane any more ?
