• 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!

welcome

I like a litte astronomy but I need a better telescope. I've been thinking of making a 3D printed dobsonian style scope
 
Welcome from Southern Ontario. I retired from an automotive career 15 years ago. I'm a farmer now. I like machining and one of my other hobbies is astronomy too.
 
Welcome from Winnipeg!!!

I think a telescope is in my future. For some reason I keep on thinking as soon as I retire I’m going to buy a telescope and a kayak. I currently seems unlikely that these purchases could be related in any way…

Welcome form near Victoria,

I was given a 10" reflector telescope a while back. Learning to use it is on my list of things to do. Good to see that there are some people here who know about them.
