• 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!

The rule of accusize...

Sapientia et Doctrina Stabilitas
Accusize has decent products and prices.

That means that as a general rule, the more urgently you need a specific product the more likely it is to be sold out.

we have 3 boring heads and I can't use a single one...

one large head has an R8 shank, but we dont have 3/4 shank boring bar insert for it.

one needs the R8 shank above, and the enco gamet automatic facing and boring head needs a custom shank.
 
Go to ali express - they have bigger thread on their 16 CAD boring head shanks, so you may need to modify. Also not urgent shipping....
