...3rd weekend in May by some who have been complaining for years that we conflicted with the Dayton Hamfest in Dayton Ohio. We don't actually know how many people this affected, but the ongoing complaining ...we now conflicted with a meet in Illinois, but another serious conflict was with the local annual hamfest at the 3M Plant in St. Paul Minnesota. I also heard from some who had conflicts ...
... doubling the SIMMs in a Solbourne S4000DX, and it worked well for as long as I needed to use the computer. I also used some solder, a very fine gauge solder which I picked up at a hamfest about the time the threat of losing all lead-based solder came out. The iron was an Edsyn "Loner" with regulated temperature at the tip, and quite fine (but not fine enough) tips. Enjoy, DoN.

... didn't have Rec.crafts.metalworking when I got my first machines. The Unimat came from a hobby store, the Atlas/Craftsman from an ad in the "Want Ad" magazine, and the Taig from a hamfest. Most of my subsequent machines came from eBay auctions, except for the Emco-Maier Compact-5/CNC. And I found out about it via the newsgroup anyway. :-) Yes. I go my vertical mill from ...
