• Hi all and welcome to TheWoodHaven2 brought into the 21st Century, kicking and screaming! We all have Alasdair to thank for the vast bulk of the heavy lifting to get us here, no more so than me because he's taken away a huge burden of responsibility from my shoulders and brought us to this new shiny home, with all your previous content (hopefully) still intact! Please peruse and feed back. There is still plenty to do, like changing the colour scheme, adding the banner graphic, tweaking the odd setting here and there so I have added a new thread in the 'Technical Issues, Bugs and Feature Requests' forum for you to add any issues you find, any missing settings or just anything you'd like to see added/removed from the feature set that Xenforo offers. We will get to everything over the coming weeks so please be patient, but add anything at all to the thread I mention above and we promise to get to them over the next few days/weeks/months. In the meantime, please enjoy!

      The AKG D202 microphone was 'launched' in 1966 (in the middle of the space race!). It's considered an iconic design in the industry, and...

      Thanks Andy. I'd be gobsmacked if I need a trip back to Wentwood for this one. Some of the wood I bought was a bit over 20 mm thick &...

      No, one hand opens a drawer just fine. And it is on casters because I designed it to sit in front of my dust collector bin. I have to...

      I think there is a balance to be struck with the taper on this table. On fine furniture it is nice to see a taper down to 19mm, but I...
