• 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 know it's a love/hate relationship for some of us but even though I'll probably never buy anything from them, I absolutely love that for a lot of the stuff you can find listed, they provide a CAD file as well for 3d printing.
Trying to get the old truck back on the road and everytime I touch a wiring harness the plastic retaining clip explodes. Not a big deal if you have next day delivery from Amazon or are next door to dealership but out here in the boonies it's a 2 hour trip to the city and back or a 7 day wait for shipping. Found the wire loom retainers section on McM, download and print the ones I break in nylon and I'm back in business in 20 minutes.
