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!

Actually, a bush is the preferred way, for privacy sake. Dang peeping toms and Sheila's

Back in 1981 a coworker and I traveled to Tokyo to check out a piece of equipment that Hershey bought for development: we needed to run some preliminary tests to determine if we could justify air freight instead of sea (things went well and the equipment almost beat us home).
Be patient, I’m getting there.
On Saturday we decided to do some sightseeing (and find a McDonald’s my buddy had seen earlier in the week where he wanted to get some “American” food). We walked around, heading in the general direction of where we thought the McD’s was (we eventually found it) and along the way visited the Emperor’s Gardens. He needed to empty his bladder, so followed the signs to the toilet facilities (we already knew that Oriental toilets were different (even in offices it was a hole in the floor that you squatted over). However, the facilities in the Gardens blew us away: he came back me and said, “Go take a leak,” and I told I didn’t need to, but he insisted so I followed the signs.
Almost there!
The path lead to a small grotto, with what looked like a tombstone in front of the opening. On the back side of the stone there was a hole: you stood behind the stone, facing outwards with a beautiful view of the Gardens, inside the dim light of the grotto and shielded by the stone so no one could see anything. That’s what you need to construct in your yards.
Just love this picture. It spells home, intelligence, time, passion, a craftsman.
The playful banter of this thread, has gone to extremes, neither totally suit me. Guess i will have to keep looking and reading.

We have acres of big trees. Our problem was not getting the kids to conserve water, it was getting them to not conserve water in town.Seriously? ..... You have no tree?
