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.

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!

Don't ask questions you might not want to know the answer to!
Silly thing is, I have a pretty good idea of what those "Singer" sewing machine accessories are used for, thanks to a little commercial sewing training.
Old Treadle Sewing machines, have proven to be some of the worst investments, as far as value as an antique, goes. Expensive as hells, in their day, but the owners took decent care of them, and now there are far more than the market really can support, so they sell cheap.
I met a guy that made a pretty good living custom building stuff for the 'Whips and Chains' set. Not who I want to hang with, but they are willing to pay a lot for their toys and accessories!
