• 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 Ontario GTA West area meetup is planned for Saturday April 26th at Greasemonkeys shop in Aylmer Ontario. If you are interested and haven’t signed up yet, click 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!

4140 round stock for sale on Kijiji

That's a dang good price & useful lengths. Looks like spoils of shot-to-pieces oil industry. I see screw pump rotors in the background.
 
Oh wow... that 2.250 stuff has "Canon parts" written all over it .

One thing to consider if your going to buy some, 4140 bar is sold both in hardened or annealed form (Chrome-Molly gun barrel blanks) and no mention of which in the add...they are a very different breed of cat to the hobby machinist...Commercial machinist have a better chance of having adequate machining equipment/cutters than we do LOL.
 
That looks expensive for smaller bars but cheap for the 3" bar. I can sell in Calgary 4140 or 4330 bar if anyone wants for $1 per lbs. That is cheaper then he does for anything under 2.4" in diameter.
