• 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!

With @Crosche's kind assistance I managed to snag the 24" pan brake for a song. Before I commit to shipping it to Vancouver Island wondering if anyone is making a trip to the Island in the near future and would have space to bring it. It's about:32"W x 13.5" D x 16.75"T

The brake is only 90lb, I think my vise weighs that much. lol
At that rate you're under $250 delivered, well done.
I looked on the Kaka Canada site as they sell a 24" finger brake. Listed at 90 lbs shipped. The one I bought might be less, dunno.
I feel like I got a good deal as the KMS one would set me back $500 tax in.
