• 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!

Looking through books at a yard sale recently. Figured this was worth a buck.
Lots of neat stuff in here....

The older ones are more valuable to us with our simple manual machines. Mine is the 17th that I found at a thrift store. There are books written on how to access the wealth of knowledge.
 
Funny. There's a fellow elsewhere in this forum who wants to trade his 1937 9th edition for a newer one. Guess people's individual needs differ.
 
Am I the only one who has never been able to be comfy with the title of that book?

Machinery is already plural.

Machinery can't own something.

I would think "Machinery Handbook" would have been better.

GREAT FIND FOR A BUCK!
 
I have the 28th edition as a PDF file. It is so big most PDF viewers can't open it or it is really slow to browse.
Brave will open it but it's still a bit slow.
