  • 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.

    Shaper à métal (Metal Shaper) - $800 - Laurier-Station, QC

    Good point Susquatch, been years since I sold anything on Kijjiji. I’d be reluctant to buy anything, even at cheap price, that I can’t do a trial run on first. I have the tools and ability to rebuild this shaper, but why, when good condition shapers are available? I have had hundreds of hours...

    This item comes up on Kijjiji in the category “cats and kittens needing rehoming”. Not kidding. Maybe even Kijjiji isn’t aware what is a metal shaper?

    Monarch 10EE

    Curious what the ‘nightmare in electrics’ a Rivett 1020 would have? On first glance seems to be remarkably simpler than a 10EE or later generation Hendey Tool n Gage lathes. In fact I turned down a good mechanical condition late model Hendey T&G lathe just five miles away from me due to its...
