• 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!

a bad cnc day :)

That hurts! Especially the one where they use a forklift to dislodge the parts from the machine....
 
Nothing quite like starting a new piece And watching the whole show go Boom!

Almost as much fun as touching off, pressing the wrong scale button and moving the dial carefully just one tick, then dodging flying carbide while trying not to spin the same dial further into destruction ville. My reaction was "(expeletive removed) oops"

The forklift is trying to lift a pallet out of a CNC mill with a pallet changer. Think of the pallet changer like interchangable milling tables. In that clip one of them fell inside when the door opened. Oops!
