• 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!

Thought you guys might want to check out Tom Lipton's site. I just found this guy via Youtube, he has a few books about metalworking out, has a Youtube channel, a blog, and Instagram. They're all worth checking out, on Youtube he has some tips and how-to's, on Instagram he posts a lot of stuff from his day job (machining/fabricating for the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California) which is REALLY cool (crazy magnets, superconductors...) and his blog is all about his home shop which is definitely drool-worthy.

Enjoy!
 
I've been watching Tom on YouTube for a couple of years now. Lots of good info for sure. You should also check out Keith Fenner on You Tube, I can watch his videos for hours. He's a really talented old school machinist. Another machinist I like to watch on You Tube is Adam Booth (Abom79)
 
Yeah, i'm subscribed to all 3. Great info in some of those videos!
