Look who’s been published....

I was browsing the June/July copy of machinists workshop and in the “end notes” section is a letter by our own @DPittman

Nice to see a local reference in a magazine I read cover to cover for the last couple of years

Congrats Don, looking forward to seeing picks of your dragon fly air rifle

I went to Chapters hoping to find these on the shelf but they have cut their magazine selection way down in the NE. I haven’t tried Chinook though.

I've never seen them at a retail store.

Egads! I wasn't thinking a quick email comment was going to end up being public....

I subscribed online due to issues in finding a reliable copy on the shelf. Cheaper too

Congrats!! I signed up to the magazine last fall after our Chapters quit carrying any machining magazines. Before that I would just pick the ones that looked interesting.

Chapters stopped carrying it here in Ontario. Congrats on being published. Hope my issue is in the mail box today.

There is a magazine/news paper shop on 17th ave at 10th street SW that regularly carries all the home shop mags for about any discipline you could have an interest in. been a couple years since I was in the door (moved out of Cowtown) but assuming they are still there.
last I was in BB, also a couple of years ago, they had a selection of HSM in a rack as you went in the door.

I’m going to have to go through mine and order online with a couple back issues I’ve been buying them for a few years now.
I have a older set for a article on building a edm for broken tap removal that would be a neat group build updating the electronics to Arduino after all one of our biggest dreads is busting a tap. Stuck bolts etc.

I was looking at making one and Stefan Gotteswinter on The Home Shop Machinist Podcast mentioned that it is very hard to get a lot of the parts for the Pulse EDM to stuff the board. I think your idea to program an Arduino makes a ton of sense.
