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!
Project Plans Forum - 2 general discussion about the forum goes here.
- Thread starter Janger
- Start date
The rules if you post: 'You agree not to disable the plans and drawings or posts should you leave the site, or be asked to leave'.
Just saying, Murphey's Law says It's going to happen John!
Depending on one's server, PC, program, hard drive failure (heaven forbid) or plain old finger trouble I believe this rule will be hard to police, even harder for any member to explain the reason why especially when he has so little control over the process.

I think we need and explanation as to what happens when we “upload” a plan (or anything for that matter) to this site. Stuff like ”where do the pictures / plans go“ after upload. Who can then manipulate the uploaded images, articles., etc.
I believe Dusty is worried that if he has a computer crash on his end, that stuff he posted here (articles, comments, pictures, etc.) will be lost.
Maybe I am missing his point.

Oh I see. ok well the forum thread you write and post your plans to is the final destination. It's all stored on the server Josh runs - @Jwest7788 - is that server space you rent? Anyway the whole forum is stored on the server including the content we write. Once you post it's copied there and should be permanent. If you lose your computer or whatever nothing will happen to the posting.
As for who can edit - right now only forum admins can edit. I'm hoping Josh can make changes so the author of the post can edit and nobody else can. That way you can make improvements or fix mistakes to your post.
