• 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 Calgary Area Meetup is set for Saturday July 12th at 10am. The signup thread is 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!

Ya, go ahead and sing the song!

I slept in this morning, then went and sat on the front porch and pondered my life.

So beautiful and so peaceful surrounded by silking corn fields.

I remembered many new friends, and reminisced about my recent trip to the Niagara Region to visit with @CWret, @Martin w, @Mcgyver, and @gerritv. One knows he enjoyed it when it fills his mind with happy thoughts several days later.

I told my bride about it and mentioned the sandwich that @Martin w made for us. So she went out and bought some thick sliced ham, provolone cheese, some romaine lettuce, and some multigrain chiabatta buns.

Such a nice simple treat! Can't beat the unexpected happiness, after a long drive, of a sandwich and a pop in the shade under Martin's tree, or the open ribbing of @CWret, but still VERY VERY NICE!

Yup, one very happy hairy guy!
