• 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!

    I would try something similar to what Lons suggests. Cut cardboard and fold it over. Then cover the outside with packing tape. Push the...

    Thinking through what I said earlier my approach would be to cut strips of suitable cardboard maybe a inch wide, roll out some parcel...

    I’ll let you know later @Mike G , I may have some gash pieces of Aquamac 21 or 63 seals that I had to pull out of a job, in a box...

    I've already got some Playdough here. I'll give that a try later. I worry that it may not repel the epoxy quite so well.

    Much as I hate to be critical of Scott’s excellent idea I asked that damn thing about the suitability of Playdough. Hope it’s helpful Mike.

    Interesting thought. It's actually expensive stuff to buy in the length I need, but dirt cheap if you buy way too much. So there may be...

    That's a nice looking saw. I use mine quite a bit. My understanding of the terminology is that a frame saw has a blade in the middle...

    Yeah, that's a thought. It should wedge in quite tightly. I have high hopes for plasticine, but if that doesn't work, I'll give this a try.

    A couple of your magic mix could solve the absorbtion issue maybe but getting the whole strip tight might be fiddly. What about silicone...

    A "V" is pushed down into the groove. Here's the profile. It's the bit at the bottom which squeezes into the groove:

    That was my first thought, Bob, but I worry that if anywhere isn't a really tight fit that the epoxy will run down into the groove and...

    The PTFE (which is the same thing as Teflon) strips suggested by @Malc2098 sound like a good option to me. Another idea (that may not...
