• 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!

    Blimey Bob, that's slightly more thorough than I've ever been with a car to say the least! My car got a thorough wash for the first...

    Lee Valley stopped selling the Axminster chucks a few years back, possibly as far back as during Covid. Pete

    Biased of course, but the Ax chucks are extremely good and imported into Canadia by Lee Valley (or were the last time I looked). I use...

    Those copper tube thingies would drive me round the bend; you may as well camp out on Westminster Bridge if that's your bag. I've gone...

    I quite like them, well some at least. We have one outside the back door which I made from 22mm copper pipe. Specific lengths and...

    Being as you are starting with quite small dowels an electric drill and a nail in a block of wood might help. I was trying to explain in...
