• 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 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!

    I figured it was time to dig out the old wire fencing to use as a frame for the peas to anchor onto. However it was overgrown with English Ivy and Blackberries. The Blackberry stalks, some more than 1/2" diameter had grown right through the roll. Could barely even see the roll. It used to...

    Amazing project worthy of a Gingery Style Book on the construction and programming.

    Running Linux and which version in order to run WINE or some other WIN-7..WIN-10 option.

    How does one install a virtual machine running say WIN-7 then on Linux? Searches bring on these long discussions that always seem incomplete. https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=369697
