• 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!

I knocked this up from oak and cherry I had knocking about the legs where cut from a piece of cherry, it was big enough to cut into 4 legs, but the amount of knot holes ment it was very difficult to shape the grain changed direction every inch or so.
The oak top was easy to make I just cut of a piece and tidied it up leaving some of the sapwood on and cut some chamfers.
I had to buy a 29mm Forster bit for the holes I bought a tct one from Amazon and it cut the oak like butter I was well impressed.
I glued it up with some rosewood wedges and gave it a couple of coats of danish oil and waxed it.
