• 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 again from farm country south of Chatham in Ontarible Quinn!

I grow rocks.....

And I fix stuff rocks break.....

Hope you enjoy the forum and the friendship as much as I do.
 
Welcome to the forum from Ottawa! Well okay, close to Ottawa.

I've enjoyed your channel for a couple years now. I've picked up lots of tips from your videos, including most of my machining basics.

As for falutin' whiskey, my unsolicited recommendations are "Artist in Residence" for a Canadian Whiskey that hits hard for it's price (it's distilled just across the boarder from me in Gatineau, Quebec. It's not always easy to find though). If I'm splurging on a Scotch whiskey my go to is Dalwhinnie. It's fantastic but pricey. As for American Whiskey, I really like Angels Envy, especially the rye if you can find it, but the bourbon is great too. Neither is cheap. Maybe wait until the yanks have mellowed out a bit before you pick up a bottle.
 
Hello Quinn, welcome to this fine group of metal manipulators. I'm the chap that's building a large boiler to power my PM Research #4. engine
I'm sure that you'll be able to impart some of your invaluable knowledge and skills.
 
Welcome from St Catharines, and an HMEC member as well.
Highly recommend trying some Dillon's Rye No 1, limited release each fall. Even the Three Oaks is excellent. And for me just 10 minutes up the road. They ship :-)

Welcome from north of Belleville, Ontario, where no one but me seems to do any hobby machining.

I have found a part-built A3 tender, and you have shown me (better than Kozo, too) how to make the wheels and trucks. Many thanks.
 
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.
