• 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!

Millennium Specialty Alloys

That company came through my FB feed, never have too many suppliers.
I am lucky enough to have a plastic supply company in my back yard, but wow are they ever expensive.

I ordered 2 ft of DOM tubing for a ring roller project. Total cost was $26 delivered.
I couldn’t get it locally so that was reasonable to me.

Yeah, I just looked at their prices and my eyes popped out even without shipping. Maybe for stuff that you cannot get locally - but most things that I cannot get locally I can get way, way, way cheaper off eBay.ca.

These guys make metal supermarket look cheap and affordable.
 
Just for clarification
- I meant my local source is very expensive -

I have a feeling plastics are getting up there, everywhere, justified or not.

All the eBay sellers I see are US based and often don't ship to Canada. What eBay sellers do you use @Tom Kitta?
 
I do not order from them , but I ask for price including transport on a appx 2 pounds order and they charge $25 for transportation.
