    Default Any other machinists here?

    There any place where machinists chill in the front range? Would be nice to talk shop sometimes with people who know what a pair of calipers are.

    Don?t be a snob. I?m not a machinist but I?m familiar with things like calipers, micrometers, dial indicators, etc. I even know the difference between horizontal, vertical, and axial.

    I would be a little surprised if there was a bar where machinists got together for drinks.

    You might have better luck finding some gun guys to hang out with.

    Calipers? Those are the things the barber uses to cut my hair right?

    A few machinists from Ball used to hang out at joint on South Golden Rd, about 25 yrs ago. Don't remember the name then but believe it is still there.

    If you want to browse faceplant, there's 3-4 good ones there. Lot's of used items in their sales section.

    Used to be one, don't hang out in bars. I enjoyed the work, just couldn't make any real money at it.

    Good luck in your quest.

    Maybe I haven't been watching the site enough, but I don't recall seeing you (Pancho Villa) on the site for a looong time. I'm damned glad to seeing you back and posting - we've missed you!

    Now, I'm not a machinist, but from time to time I have a project that I could certainly use a machinist for. It would be great to know who here is a machinist and which of those can do projects for folks.
