Hello I’m a millwright and machinist apprentice I work all over AB !
How about your self ?
ya I’m really happy with this box it’s water proof to
Keep all the precision tools dry ! And trust me it’s packed !!!
 
Do you have a millwright specialty? Where is 'local' to you?

There seems to be more millwrights in Alberrta in recent years... 20 years ago they seemed to be hard to find.


Welcome to the group!
 
Really all of the province ft Mac to Medicine Hat !
I really love it more industry now then 20 years ago ?
What about you what do you do ?
 
Back 20 years ago I tried to contact a millwright to fix a specific problem for a machine tool I owned. After exhausting the yellow pages and all my industry contacts, I found 2 with small machine experience. Both did not satisfy me that they would undertake the fix in a reasonable way and at reasonable cost.

- Both of them said that ruining the machine was a likelihood.

So I gave up. Fixed it myself. (after a lot of learning and cussin') In the past few years I have learned there are a lot of millwrights but you have to get one with the experience you need...
