This group seems to have transformed almost fully into the "let me rant
about this or that political BS" but seems to still have a few on-topic
posts here and there.

Does anyone know if alt.rec.crafts.metalworking is alive or not? Seems
to be dead quiet and ripe for the picking for those of us that do want
to talk metalworking...

A lot of news servers have dropped access to the alt.* groups.

Stop complaining and start your own machining group on LinkedIn. Get EA involved so I have someone that will interest me, amuse me, **** me the **** off, etc.

I did this for CADCAM and with my years of CADCAM industry connections my LinkedIn group has taken off like a bat out of hell:

Joe, you probably run into more of the most interesting metalworking
situations. I think you should post more, even if it's old hat for you.
The political stuff is just placeholders for good, brain exercising
problems and challenges.

Absolutely correct. If we had metalworking stuff...we would enjoy
it!

If you hadn't started cross posting to political and gun groups years ago there would be far more metalworking content than there is now. That you refuse to accept the blame for this is typical of how you and your cult of idiots think, Wieber.

Wouldn't it be cool to drown-out the trolls and OT crap with metalwork?

Wouldn't it be cool if you didn't inherit your brush business from your parents and you had to actually use your brain to make it on your own?

Here is a photograph of Tom Gardner's "modern" shop:

Suggest you get honest and put a sign on the front door of Ohio Brush that says:

Closing Soon

How about posting a photograph of your modern shop so people can see what a modern shop looks like.

Wouldn't it have been cool if you weren't so stupid and didn't making phony death threats to anyone who calls you out for what you truly are?

Now we have a newsgroup filled with bozo's like The Pimple.

Thanks, asshole.

I should have clarified that.

"Metalwork chained to a leg and then push them off the pier or canal
bank." would do a marvelous job of drowning them.

Well, I don't think I'm at the cutting edge of the knowledge base or
anything... But I really don't know what you folks would like to hear
about typically.

If I had the time, I'd post a list and short description of each
application that comes across my desk as it would certainly start some
pretty cool conversations. ...All I need now is a spare two or three
hours a day to organize that properly.

Why? Nobody else is organized, what makes you so special?

I often post when I get stuck or I know there's a better way but can't
put my finger on it. Sometimes, just to show a recent project with the
challenges and solutions.

Wrong, asshole. No doubt you don't use SolidWorks PDM or even understand what PDM is.

Alt is almost dead. Rare if posted to.

The 'alt' to many people means something off color / not normal. Often
not supported by ISP's - as - foundry work is in it - lost out.
