• 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!

Hi guy seen this forum from kijiji. Looks like a great way to get to meet new people interested in the metal industry. I'm 30 years old been machining since I was 18 started my apprenticeship right out of high school. Work for a natural gas compressor company than for 7 years doing plant maintaince on industrial equipment. Work as a machinist and millwright fixing equipment, also have lathe and milling machine at my home shop. Always learning and wanting to learn more only work on manual equipment.
 
Hi Ed,

That sounds absolutely great to have that kind of gear at your home shop! Welcome, I'm sure you have a lot you can pass on to those of us without the professional experience!
 
Thx guy always interested in meeting new people. Yes for sure Kris Jensen nice to know more people in okotoks we may have to meet up at some point see what projects each other are working on
 
Welcome! This form is a good spot to share your garage projects. Hopefully people will give you a few ideas too. Once all the ideas start flying its amazing what is possible.
