• 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!

    Pharmacy2u

    We've been using P2U for some years without any particular problem although we do order via our GP and they send the script to P2U.

    Ceanothus

    Variegated shrubs and trees are clones which have a genetic disorder as compared with the basic species. They retain the ability to throw out new growth true to their natural parentage. This phenomenon is referred to as reversion, ie reverting to basic. Brian

    Ceanothus

    Here's my neighbour's ceanothus:- As you can see, it's a partially reverted variegated version, possibly Zanzibar. Note how the blooms on the reverted branches are much bigger. Brian

    Moving and changing GP surgery ?

    In my case it was all within the same trust, so it seems that GP surgeries can have their own procedures.

    Moving and changing GP surgery ?

    Had a similar experience on moving 10 months ago. Shortly before moving I had reason to look up details of an op 18 years ago; no problem. After moving I was surprised to find only recent entries were available. Strangely some were from my old surgery. When I had my annual MOT at the new...

    Carver's Screw, is that a noun or a verb?

    Cutting Veneer

    Do you want double thickness veneer? If so use a non water based glue. Usual method of cutting small pieces of veneer is with a scalpel. Brian

    When 'Girlie' stops working

    Ev Even after 1001110 years of practice I still occasionally wrongly interpret L or R directions. If the satnav has told me to take the next left, say, and my wife can see I've got it wrong, she'll pipe up, "No, no, the other left" Brian

    Vinyl not so wrapped...

    Do what I did recently with 28 kitchen doors - stripped off the plastic and painted them. The adhesive that's there is a good primer and it's easy to get a good finish with rollered water based paint. Brian

    Chairs - Done!

    Yeah, these thick boars can be very temperamental. How big is the heard? Nice timber though.

    Splits in oak

    I wouldn't do anything with it. Leave it until you've got a project in mind. You never know, you may need that extra bit of length and you may be able to work around the splits. Just let the wet rotted area dry out and it won't go any further without a supply of moisture. Sawing off the split...

    Nothing fancy, just a very useful Board Catcher

    Steve, I had 2 roiier supports and used them frequently feeding long/heavy timbers onto (or away from) the planer, table saw or bandsaw, but never the thicknesser. I agree your don't want to be nipping around with a 4" tripping hazard on the floor. Mileage may differ but not in the direction...

    Nothing fancy, just a very useful Board Catcher

    I've never found a need for a support for use with a thicknesser. I just support the workpiece by hand as enters the machine and when it reaches its mid-point I transfer my self propelled, infinitely variable height adjustable support system to the outfeed. The same system is then available to...

    Routering trickery.....

    Here is the Trend Inlay Kit The cutter is ¼"dia, therefore the collar wall thickness is ¼" The problem I found is that, because the collar is retained on the bush by a compressed O-ring in its internal bore, there is possible play between the 2 parts. Thus when pressure is applied to keep the...
