• 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!

A Few Recent SketchUp Scribbles

Your drawings as always Dave are amazing. Your drawings are so good that feel comfortable asking this. Could you include a sense of scale? An average sized man perhaps. I am left wondering how big the dredger would have been to house that engine.
 
Indeed that titling top could be used in a number of other situations :eusa-think:

What is is the locking method for holding the top in the horizontal?

Or perhaps a prop, or two like this. Used this wok table for all sorts over a long time and rock steady.

It is a nice feature until it gets bumped. Had it on an extension work at old workshop, and bumped it one day.
Fortunately not a lot of stuff on the top.

This is from an online session with a student. She was after modeling a glass panel that looks like it had been etched. The border pattern was supplied by the student. I made the glass panel to fit a cabinet model I already had. Probably not the best combination of styles.

Nice looking cabinet.
 
I like a lot of the things you post sketches of here but I don't like that :)

Can't define why - I just don't.

More woodworking. This demilune table is based on one from Spain made early in the 18th century. I don't think I've ever seen a table with raked, splayed, AND toed-in legs before.

First thought was no, cluttered.

Then I went back later for another look, YES I like it :cool:
 
Imagine that table with a thick table cloth coming to the floor and a source of heat on the floor, originally charcoal, now electrical. You would sit at the table with your coat on and your legs under the table cloth to warm them.

In the winter I have walked past old stone houses with the front door open as it's warmer outside than inside.
The family is all sitting around the table to get warm

Dave, the red stool really looks too good for a workshop.

Mine gets bashed and shoved around.
It is a metal frame bar stool at least 70 years old.
I have replaced the wooden seat a couple of time and then new foam and some scrap cover.
 
Well I have CAD programmes but I can't do anything like you have just line drawings that's me. I think they all look brilliant so clever too.

Nice work.
 
If I’d been told these were photographs of actual pieces of furniture I would NOT* have thought otherwise.


Edit * see below
 
Opps. Sorry to DaveR and thanks Steve for pointing out the error. Or course I meant that I would not have thought otherwise had I been told this was a photograph of an actual piece of furniture
 
I’ve probably said it before but if you had told me these were photos or finished items I would no5 have doubted .
 
I like that pencil style for designs, I've used that quite a lot. Very nice design Dave, similar to the plans I have tucked away in my head for when I get round to building one...

Thank you.

I don't have many handplanes at the moment but when I get my new shop built I might make something like it to hang on the wall. Afterall, I have the plans now and the guy I did them for seems to have disappeared now.
