• 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!

    Gray machine paint - recommendations please

    The Corrostop paint is good, but by far the best and most durable paint I have ever used is Motor Coater by KBS. I bought some at a truck show about 10 years ago and used it on some lathe parts. It is impervious to oil and still just as good today as when it was applied. It is from the USA so...

    You gotta stop unhitching it in the ditch. :D Is this a Bush Hog brand or John Deere rotary mower? There is no drain. You need to turn the mower on its side. If it's a John Deere, you have likely reached the end of warranty and it's time to purchase a new one:D I usually throw a bucket over...

    10” rotary table with 14” chuck

    I’ve had this older rotary table, that came with a milling machine I once had. I have only used it once, as I have another and a dividing head. I don’t know the manufacturer. It works great but honestly it has had a terrible life, but it turns smoothly with no noticeable backlash. The rotary...
