Machine Builders Network ??

edlegault · Jul 11, 2011

Anybody know what happened to this other forum? I had it bookmarked to look at some DIY stuff on CADTRAC builders and other stuff, but now it is missing from the 'net.

Shortly after I discovered Machine Builders Network they stopped accepting new members. I missed the cut. It sure was an informative site, though. Hopefully someone can point us in the right direction.

Really?! Restricted membership?!

I have been a lurker on MBN for many years, but I never post, so I never
registered. It has moved to "kramerville.net" and has only about 600 registered members.

I've been a member of MBN for several years. When they changed over to the new site everyone had to re -register at the new site. As far as I know they are taking new signups at the new site. I tried to access the old site a coupla days ago and none of the links would work. That's where most of the info is still. I'm hoping they'll have everything moved over before long. Keep trying and good luck. George

Just checked.

There is nothing at "kramerville.net"

Maybe the owner of it hangs out here?

Actually it IS there, but with a sub-name. Do a google search and it comes up. I will not post it here because I guess they had bad spam problems before.

Followed the link and am able to lurk/view their boards.

Speaking of which - a couple of years ago I found (I think via a Machine Builders Network post) a web site by a guy up in a remote place in Canada who posted his "adventures" of living, working with and maintaining his machinery up there. It was pretty good reading. Anyone recall that?
