• 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!

Ayup! It sure did!

I know there are guys on here who are proud of shops that are that clean and tidy. But I'm not one of them.

I see shops like that and I see a life filled with cleaning, tidying, waxing, polishing, and organizing. I can also hear my bride (the ultimate neat freak) following me around and making me turn off the machine and pick up every little piece of swarf before they even hit the ground. My fur stands on end and I just wanna die looking at a shop like that.

@Dabbler is dropping in here on Tuesday evening and I think he plans to go to the Calgary meetup. He will be able to relate to you guys what my shop looks and feels like. That photo isn't it!
 
Try this one. I had my cheque book out until I saw the red shag rug!

So many side themes....

Can you imagine being a female member of the staff there responsible for advertising making that booboo?

Can you imagine a few of the calls they got?

Can you imagine the first moment they realized what they posted?

Etc etc etc

Just plain funny every way you look at it!
 
A few hundred years ago, around these parts, there was an explorer named Juan de Fuca. As a result the name has been adopted a lot. Years ago a friend worked as a receptionist for Juan de Fuca Vetinary Clinic. One day a client was paying by cheque (remember those ?) and asked how to spell the name. Yes she did.
