• 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!

Just came across this site, thought I would jump on. I am a retired guy with a garage shop, inside is a Tormach mill, a engine lathe, home made press brake, also a Tig welder and heat treat oven. It's nice to see a forum with locals, glad to come across it. Oh, in my basement I have what I started with is the Sherline lathe and mill.
 
Welcome aboard Greg, great place to spend slack times. Like you many members are retired.

Enjoy!

Welcome.

I'm going to guess your profile pic is of a remote control electric dozer to deal with all that Winnipeg snow?

Ya, first year with it, the testing part thus far. I found it to have some issues, the gear boxes are not up the task. Rebuilding as we speak.
