• 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!

    Tool Replacing a spring punch tip

    2 hp knee mill price

    I think David might mean the XLO mill I just pointed out, for $625. Broadly, I would say you can get a full-sized mill (Bridgeport etc.) in Ontario for $3000 at any time. $2000 is not at all uncommon, but could be harder to land with time differences, if you're in a hurry, etc. Sub $1500...

    Made in/shop in Canada options - Links or recommendations only!

    I'll have to try that! I can also recommend Bearface, from BC, for anyone who likes whisky with more character, into Bourbon territory. For gin, I quite like Sheringham's Seaside. Hmm. Maybe I should just move to BC...

    Cast Bronze Plaques

    The same folks that own SSC own MST Bronze. :) Myros is a great guy, and was behind Metalcraft magazine back in the early 2000’s, if anyone remembers that. They do sand casting, as well as ceramic shell. Maybe other stuff?
