• 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!

    Well, that day didn't go to plan.

    We taped a bag to the wife’s foot and put a plastic step stool in the bath for her to sit on, while she showered. I did the same but with a dustbin bag in my leg. Pete

    Reclaimed bookcase - finished

    I would go for one brass CSK screw in each end of the boards, mostly because I was given lots of screws. A blunted nail will not split the board bit might work lose. Pete

    Church Noticeboard

    The tong and grove should be covered at the top to stop water getting in. A brass screw or stainless steel nail, a brass screw would be my first choice in the middle of the board. Pete

    Do the back boards have a groove or do they overlap the bottom? A groove will hold water and rot just like garden benches. Pete
