• 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!

HI everybody, I am very happy to have found a Canadian website like this. I own a Standard Modern 11x20 Utilathe, this is my second lathe the first one is A Myford ML7 long bed, I learned what I know on that Myford before getting my SM I still own that Myford, I hope to be able to contribute in whatever way I can on this forum and share with this great activity.
Cheers

This is what we call machine creep...... It's mostly harmless, but highly infectious....... Pictures, we need pictures, machines, projects, heck even pets are a welcome sight.......
 
I’m very sure you will enjoy your time spent on this Forum. I got a lot of helpful advice when getting a mill a couple years ago and again when i was contemplating a lathe. I got a Super7 a month ago. There are many Myford and SM owners here.
Where in Quebec?
