• 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!

Welcome Quinn from southern AB.

I’ve found your videos extremely informative over the years and really appreciate them as a resource.

I’m self taught at machining, reading books, asking questions on this forum, and watching YouTube, and you are one of the people that I’ll always watch to see how you do it.

I’m sure you’ll find the guys helpful here and the atmosphere generally great. A lot of people from different backgrounds with different skills.

There’s also the classifieds here, and the “underground” network of material/tool/supplies sharing that occurs which, with the cost of everything can be invaluable…..
 
Hello everyone!

I'm Quinn and I occasionally make silly videos on YouTube about model engineering. A viewer just let me know that this forum exists so here I am! Glad to be here.

Hello from Osoyoos, the South Okanagan!
I saw some of your first videos a few years ago and watched you evolve.
Welcome to this group of mad metal wierdos and moreso, welcome to Canada.
We are honored to have you here.
