• 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!

    Exterior door threshold

    I would be looking into this whole area to establish to what extent the surrounding timbers are damaged due to possible water ingress from the front door threshold. Got any more pictures of the current set up with door open and shut? Cheers, Andy

    Mr Davidson’s Grandfather’s Plane

    Of their type a very nicely executed example. That is assuming it was knocked up by a user or their relative/friend who had access to a metal working establiment. Some are worthy of a collecting niche all of their own ;) I like the nicker arrangement along with likely a depth stop on the other...

    Mystery chisel

    At the moment I think I can see letter N under the paint on image 5. Which would put pay to it being a crude blacksmith made screwdriver unless it has been repurposed. Cheers, Andy

    I would like to replace the obsolete roller on the belt tensioner but have no reference as to what material to use. Maybe someone might look at theirs and let me know what you have please. It is item 35 on the spigot 34 which is visible on the attached parts breakdown. Cheers, Andy

    Super glue and activator packs withdrawn at Toolstation

    Just went in for my regular dose 100mg + large activator to be told new legislation prohibits selling them together.:mad: You can buy separates but only in the small sizes. Cant find any reference to the legislation online, anyone else know about this? Cheers, Andy

    How many ways to throw dust?

    Certainly true especially in relation to planer thicknessers where airtight extraction hoods suck all the air past the rotating cutter block, puts the Vulcan bomber engine howl to shame. Cheers, Andy

    How long to cut a rebate (unpowered)?

    Marking gauge and duplex rebate plane set rank. Hog of to near lines and back off the iron to finesse the finish. Ideally have wood too long to screw it to a good solid substrate. Cheers, Andy

    Fanlight window hardware quality.

    Rarely a job I have to do but I have just done (for an elderly lady) a conversion of a bottom sliding/tilt sash into a fanlight style to make getting ventilation easier than lifting. Although a resounding success i had issue with the quality of the catch and roller restrictors obtained in a rush...
