• 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!

    ? for the woodworkers here

    This is what I was doing with my incident, but my piece was too thick for the length and flipped up off the blade. My left hand (feather board) took its place.

    ? for the woodworkers here

    I guess in reality, I am more woodworker than metal worker. LOL As was mentioned above, there are a lot of ways to push wood through a saw, but the best way is with a well thought out plan and full attention. I have two grippers, and swear by them. Getting them was the only way I could get...

    SOLD - Small Quick Change Tool Holder

    This came on my SM 10“ Utilathe when I got it. I picked up an AXA QCTP right away and these have sat in a box since. Trying to clean out some stuff. It has a spacer plate that lifted it to the right height for my lathe, as well as 10 tool holders. Holders will fit a 1/2” tool. Not a great...
