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!

Mexico?
That's what my bench looks like! Mission accomplished! 😀
Yes, he’s on vacay in Mexico.
Did print a new one yet?
Sure did.
Photos or it didn't happen.😉
Are you kidding? That maniac probably did it 5 years ago..... Either that or he took all of 5 minutes to do it in his sleep.
He is embarrassing.
If you create 4 tubular spacers and press them into bolt holes you will only compress a bit of the overall part. Maybe less than a mm of the overall thickness.
That’s a great idea!
On rifles, that is called pillar bedding.
The Vevor enclosure I'm using has a rectangular opening at the bottom with a removable panel which I presume is to be drilled for cable glands etc.
All my motor cable have plugs on both ends so I threw together a rough design for cable management and holding. None of the dimensions are correct.
This will attach to one end of the opening, provide enough space for 3 axis servos, the spindle servo and proximity switches.

Are the contacts not removable from the connector? You would need the removal tool but you wouldn't need to build a new panel,,,,,, never mind, that would just keep you ahead of schedule leaving the rest of us farther behind. 😉 lol
The power cables for the servos have phoenix plugs which I removed to pass them through the cable clamps. The only one that’s a problem is the encoder cable for the spindle motor as it has a massive plug on one end and DB15 plug on the other end. I think I’m just going to cut a slot in the black panel and then design and print a clamp so it can’t pull out.
