I think I discovered them here on this forum actually. They have a simple email type newsletter. The acronym is:
A.M.E.N. (Alberta Metal Enthusiast Network)
... is about metal casting, heat engines, gear trains, knives,
armour, machines tools and tool holders, jigs and
fixtures, small motorcycles, electro-mechanical
mechanisms and other neat stuff.
They have monthly get-togethers, next ones are
