• 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.

  • 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.

    I've already been in touch. The only response I got was 'Come see it'. Considering I'm 6 hrs away, kinda just wanted some guarantee it'll be there when I get there and it's what I'm looking for.

    One ton gantry crane on sale at princess auto

    I have wanted to pick up one of these for awhile, however the $740 shipping option (only one available!) is kind of a deterrent!

    BRIDGEPORT MILLING MACHINE, $2,950.00, Ilderton, ON

    Looking for a 13-16" Swing lathe 36-48 between centers

    The PO had stated that he had recently replaced them. I have to get ahold of Grizzly to see if I can get the card for the lathe. From what I understand it was in a school in Milton, Ont before it was sold off, so I do expect it to have a fair amount of wear. Won't be able to tell until I get it...
