• 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 Calgary Area Meetup is set for Saturday July 12th at 10am. The signup thread is 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!

I'd bet pretty much every one has dual voltage wall warts sitting in a drawer in the house or shop. PA has a wide variety of LED lights that fit what ever level of cheap frugal you are. You could buy a few of these lights and put one in every room of the shop and one over your head in the bedroom. lol

Or you could use a dryer fan sense switch to power a light.

People turn compressors off?

The only time I unplug mine is when there is some kind of service needed, electrical, oil change etc.

Do you have a bunch of leaks that necessitate turning it off ?

No but it's outside in a lean-to on the side of my shop so out of consideration for my neighbors I don't like it to run when I'm not working.
