• 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!

Metal gauge?

It was a Sprite, you lose 2 points for person sitting on the driveshaft tunnel. Ask me how I know :-(

Some life we have huh? Everyone else is enjoying a nice warm meetup, and we get leftover Meatloaf.....

no kidding! I’m watching insulation dry at this rate

Know what? We should all do something really special just to piss them all off. Sort of like holding a board meeting and doling out assignments to those who are not present.

I hereby move that everyone who is here on the forum right now and not attending a meetup get automatic fully qualified "Walks on Water" membership status without having to prove it by cutting some ridiculous thread inside out and upside down in less than four minutes. Everyone at a meetup has to do it under the watchful eye of a hungry grizzly bear leashed to the backside of their suspenders.

All in favour say Yes.

And opposed say No.

Voting closes at 3:30 Eastern Standard Time.

Note: I tried to do this as a survey but the shortest time I could select was a full day later and those lucky SOBs will all be back on their computers by then. So I've selected a time stamp instead.

.....if it helps my "Walks on Water" status any, it's raining here and I am going out to swap the timing gears in my old truck. If I didn't have such a severe case of "Old 'Arn" disease, I could probably do it in a nice dry spot...... But, then I wouldn't be trying to daily drive a '78 Ford....... Point in this being @Chicken lights insulation and I will both require drying out before getting tucked away. :p
 
Those guys are all gunna be soooooo pissed when they all get home from their frolicking........ Especially @Janger..... Heh heh heh heh

I've decided to spend my day shopping. That what my wife does whenever she feels left out. It works for her.

Big Ali order getting placed today. Might even break a hundred bucks!
