• 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!

Good day from Stittsville, ON

And welcome from Vancouver Island.
I am also a fan of Standard Modern, you just need to be patient waiting for your machine to come up for sale. I had WTB ads in the local buy/sell for almost a year looking for my machine before getting a phone call from someone willing to sell their machine.
Darrin - start a thread under Machine Talks to find your way back from "lost".
 
I might have a few of those:

Just joined and sifting through the site. I have a Taig and most of the LeeValley accessories for both wood and metal that I bought over ten years ago. The Taig has been great for making wooden guitar bridge pins and some misc metal parts over the years but looking forward to learning and expanding my capabilities through this group. I liked this thread as it makes me want to share a Mike Pekovich designed woodworking toolbox that I built a few years ago. Hope you guys like it from a newbie!
