• 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!

    Post a photo of the last thing you made...

    That’s a pretty good result done on a saw, no doubt it needed a fair bit of sanding, I’ve done it a couple of times and it’s a messy job. I was joking about the unanimous, shapers aren’t particularly expensive back in the uk but the tooling ends up costing more again. There was a brill thread on...

    Home made try square

    That’s nice Steve, I’m guessing the blade is about 10” long? Did the design call for slightly off centre holes to pull the blade down onto the stock? Never made one but it occurred to me that it might be a thing lol. Ian

    Unusual picture Scott, so was it hanging in your workshop when the unanimous decision to bring it indoors was taken? Nice profile, did you do it on the shaper?

    Speakers

    Yes these had those three plus a super tweeter all kef speakers, big port and the insides of the whole thing was covered in car underseal- dreadful stuff till it dried. Then the interior spaces were filled with a blue wool, special stuff that I can’t recall the name of. But no pointy legs, they...

    Speakers

    Yes my Monitors went to my son, 4’ high and roughly 12 x 15 on the top, most impressive to listen to but covered in white Formica they were “of a period” shall we say. A copy of Cambridge R50’s I built back in 1976. Ian

    Easy fit buckle - now fixed

    That’s a serious bit of leatherwork Adrian, I can see why you wanted to save it. Sounds like a useful symbiotic relationship you’ve set up there. Ian

    I’ve come across that type of insulation before but haven’t heard it called Deadsheet, presumably because that’s what it does? Is it the same stuff as is used in attic conversions? Ian

    Barn Man Door - lets use what materials are available.

    It’s certainly old judging by what’s left of the Tower bolt, I wonder what was on the outside to cause the dark square, it’s a lot too low down for a lock?

    I might just borrow that arm idea, most useful.

    Well, that day didn't go to plan.

    I’m sure you’re taking advice Mike but it all sounds a bit energetic! I say that as a total non participant.

    Knee Deep In Sh-T is and understatement.

    Following all this with fascinated interest but nothing of use to add! But dear God Pete that frost line is deep! I thought it was bad enough here in Boston at 4’ Ian

    Making another stool WIP - updated with making the legs octagonal

    Good WIP thanks Robert, going well, I’m not surprised the legs didn’t move overnight as that bit of wood looks well old! But good. My only concern is that at 600 long, by the time they are Octagonalised won’t they be a bit small in section at the bottom? Ian

    Field fire....

    Or even the sun through a broken bottle base, or lightning? Knew someone who didn’t quite have a sofa on fire from sunlight through bulls eye glass in the window.

    American here in Oundle (Peterborough) - Brand new to woodworking

    Hmm, sorry to say Russ, but they’re both Pine.
