  • 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!

Gotta love this idea...though I'm sure you rural guys know this stuff like the back of your hand already. This one seems to burn much cleaner than others I have seen. But what I like is how he does it all with nothing other than the two 55 gallon drums. When I was young my dad and I made lots of different designs, but all used additional materials.

 
The police would be all over anyone using this near where I live. Burn permits required and only wood or field waste is allowed to be burned in my Rural Municipality. If the fire department shows up you are on the hook for the cost if no permit or illegal materials.
 
I know lots of areas have enacted bylaws of late. It used to be pretty common in rural Alberta.
 
My neighbor burns his garbage every week. I have a barrel next to his and only used it once.
