Found these on one of the Machinist Forums. Good links and good info.

There are a few that I've not seen before.

Kit, I know you're probably familiar with these next couple, but if you're gonna start a thread like this, you can't to forget mention these places so folks who don't already know can find them

I've been wanting to stumble across some info like this. Thanks fellas.
Kit,
Could you tell me what the best machinist forum would be? Kind of looking for the "Bladeforums" of machine forums, if you know what I mean. What might be the best forum for machinist category? Thanks.

This one is my favorite. It is full of fairly nice folks and that's important. Machinists, especially gunsmith machinists, can be some of the biggest D!ckheads around. This site is devoid of the hine****OOPs, better not print his name, he's like a bad penny, shows up everywhere. :footinmou

Anyway, there's a lot of good information there. I've frequented it for years.
