• 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!

I believe I should participate in my French English!
I am 77 years old. For the last 20 years or so, I have played with some lathes -Hardinge, Atlas, Southbend and a wonderful Bridgeport that I had to sell some years ago. I now have a Litlle Crafetex. I will post later on some questions about aligning the Headstock of my Harrison L6 12" lathe.
Thank you for letting me be part of your discussion group.
My name is Robert Patoine.

Welcome @patro!

You and I are roughly the same age! Your English is excellent! I can speak and read French enough to get by. My French writing sucks.

Some of us on here are familiar with lathe alignment but most just use the machine the way it is. It's a great topic for discussion with lots of opinions. You have certainly come to the right place for that!
