My company had to lay off 1/3 of its staff a few weeks ago, and my whole department got axed, so I took some R&R to travel Europe for a few weeks. I've returned now and am starting my Job search! I figured I'd reach out to you guys. If anyone has anything, perhaps you can private message me and...

This is the shaper I got off kijiji a few months ago. It has sat since it landed in my garage as I wanted to finish my bicycle frame before starting on this shaper clean up. Note the top-slide assembly and clapper are not installed in this photo. I wanted to completely disassemble it to give...

Hello! I want to make a custom head-badge for my bicycle, and I am planning on going with molten pewter in a high-temp silicone mould. Does anyone know of somewhere I can get lead-free pewter? Preferably in Calgary? I'd prefer to use something that has a known chemical composition then going to...

Looking for some t-slotted framing, Mcmaster-Carr seems to be cheaper than what I can find online so far. Is there anyone in Canada who sells it a reasonable price? Even better would be local to Calgary. I know metal supermarkets doesn't stock it.

This project is still probably 6 months away from starting but I am doing a bit of preliminary research. I would eventually like to attempt to cut internally toothed ring gears on my shaper. The only thing I'm not clear on at the moment is how the cutters for internal teeth differ from external...

So in a moment of drowsy uncertainty at 2:00am last night, I submitted an offer to purchase this absolute unit of a shaper vise on ebay, as the seller only had it listed for $250 CAD, and the seller happens to be in Canada, in Scarborough, ON. The seller is now working on an estimate for freight...
