• 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!

Yes good job Craig. I thought I should have bought them too but it would have been really silly to do so as I don't even know how to use them. :eek:
Glad you said it. I was looking at them, thinking that they would be handy, probably, maybe...if I knew how to use them. ;)
 
Match together the number, now you have you standard dimensional reference. Advantage besides what you have in the box you gave the various combination you can make.

Sin Bar with soacers (gauge block) lets you make a angle reference (uses the dreaded trig functions).

Now you know how to use them and their importance, sorry you are going to get in trouble with your wife now @140mower
