• 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!

    So this a CB fail. I just did that to one of my belts. I knew I needed a hollow point chisel to make a clean hole (I wrecked a belt with a forstner wood bit). I started making a hollow point 4.5mm chisel out of an annealed 1/4 bolt. Got it drilled and nice and sharp, put it down somewhere, and...

    So assuming it's $250USD/month we need 68 paying members. Right now, Friday morning, 16 members are browsing and we have 266 guests. How many of those guests are 'bots' web crawlers and the like? Do we have too much load and it's more than our server allotment can handle? Total: 282 (members...

    Following up on this with a thought. Susq / David have you tried turning off all caching on the server?

    ah.. no. see this is the clever bit. put the motor intake part right in the bag, not on the other side of the bag which is of course the usual way. The disposable bag filters the air more than this approach. I do have a filter thing on the intake so it's not horrible. maybe it will need more...
