• 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!

    Wadkin surface planer

    I think I'm getting more confused! I can't see any markings / depth scale for either table I've been out for another look at the cutter block. Here it is with both tables at working height, resulting in a small amount of snipe. Here with outfeed table as low as possible Both tables as low...

    Wadkin surface planer

    I've just picked up a Wadkin RAD 197 surface planer. I'd like to find out more about it - so far only info I've been given is that its tet number relates to pre-1937 and that it would have been grey? It's got a pump motor on it with an air operated on/off switch. Both of which I assume are...

    'Entry level' dust extraction

    Morning I'm looking to get a dust extraction set up. I have a lathe, small table saw, mitre saw and other small power tools. I understand that I really need a chip extractor but also something to then filter the air. I've been looking at the entry level Record Power chip extractors - CX2000...

    Triton TWSS10 Whetstone all rund sharpening?

    Im looking for an all round sharpening system - turning tools, chisels, planes, knives etc. The triton is £180 so half the price of the ProEdge set up, and has jigs available for turning etc. Is it any good? Is there a better alternative or should I just shell out for the proedge?

    First turning - ever :-)

    My neightbour came round and asked if I could do something with some little pegs of ash to stand some of her stained glass decorations on as she's prepping for an Easter craft fair. Originally she just wanted small slots cutting in the top to sit them in, but as I'd just got my very first lathe...

    Lathe ID please?

    Very excited. Picked up my first ever lathe today. Can anyone identify it? What else will I need to get started? I believe it has MT1 taper and 3/4 16 thread. Think I'd like a nice chuck for it and I really need some tools, so what would be best for a true beginner? Also, bench mount...

    Hello from Bristol

    Hello I moved down to Bristol from stoke about 4 years ago after meeting my current wife. We live just outside Bristol in a house with a slightly bigger than single garage which is a nightmare as I used to have access to a big corner of a large agricultural shed/workshop. Previously I've...
