• 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!

Hello everyone, I just joined the group. This group has been a source of information for me several times, and I’m looking forward to sharing ideas.
Machining has always interested me, and I’ve been learning a bit over the last few months.
I just upgraded my 7x12 lathe to a CX706, and I’m in the process of setting it up.

Welcome from Ontario near Chatham.

Sounds like you have been lurking for a while. Glad you liked us enough to join!
 
Welcome to the forum from Lillooet BC.
Nice shiny new toys...... Just give us the word and we'll start our list of must-haves for tooling and accessories...... We're pretty good at making suggestions on how to spend your kids inheritance.....:rolleyes:
 
Welcome from Campbell River on Vancouver Island. Grew up in Saskatoon and spent a year in Yorkton.

Now that you have a bigger lathe(and looks nice btw) you can work on tooling and fixtures to make it more versatile.
 
Welcome aboard.
Enjoy the ride.
Just ask and members will jump in to help with your CX706
