This is the first Canadian based group that I have found to date, it will be nice to trade stories about Busybee and Princess auto instead of harbor freight and the likes.
I am a big fan of the videos of doubleboost , Abom79,Tom Lipton and the likes.
Has anyone gone to the model engineering expo at Estevan SK in October, believe me it is great!

Welcome from Vancouver Island. You will appreciate this site as compared to the US ones. (at least the ones I have visited). Less condemnation for work that doesn't impress retired NASA engineers.

Never been to Estevan, but live in Portage la Prairie, and went to Austin Thresherman days a couple times. A few model engines and the like, but mostly the real thing. Pretty awesome! I would highly recommend if they are running again this summer.

Welcome from SK. Been meaning to take in the Estevan expo but life always seems to interfere.
