• 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!

    Missing Images....

    See https://canadianhobbymetalworkers.com/threads/missing-images.11851/post-163255 above. I was trying to view Stuart Samuel's post from earlier today. My Mac receives a .webp format for the images and is unable to display them. @ChazzC could you confirm that your macOS 11 (and later) systems...

    I should mention that if I right-click on the icon of a missing .webp image and Download it, I can open the file and view the image with a graphics program (GraphicConverter from LemekeSoft in this case). Craig

    Missing Images....

    Sorry, but I disagree with both these assertions. See above--ChazzC & I are getting webp format that our older macOS systems don't readily display. Craig

    Missing Images....

    I checked on my iPhone and the 'problem' images are visible; they are delivered in webp format. ChazzC's post (#26) shows two question-mark-rectangles for me on the Mac referencing webp format images. I am, however, running an older version of macOS (10.15.7). A random internet search...

    Missing Images....

    It has been a couple of days...any update? In case I'm the only one, images don't display properly in posts since shortly after the forum upgrade. For example, in https://canadianhobbymetalworkers.com/threads/bridgeport-clone-700-aurora-on.11875/post-163198 I see the question mark icon...

    RF30 Mill/Drill Surprises

    Another option is to fix up the RF-30, sell it and use the proceeds towards a square column mill. I get along OK with my round column but changing the belts is tiresome. I've found, with planning, I seldom need to move the head up or down during a sequence of operations. (Stubby drills make...
