• 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!

    Mercedes Keys

    Having commented on Terry's rant about tool prices, I now have one of my own. With considerable skill I recently managed to dunk my iphone, wallet and Merc electronic key in salt water while bass fishing! All are kaput surprise surprise. Ruddy expensive days fishing that turned out to be I can...

    fixing into gone off expanding foam?

    Niggly little problem this. I rent my recently deceased Mothers home on behalf of the rest of my siblings. Because I'm closest and the most DIY friendly I get the fun of all the maintenance. Cut a long story short, had to fill a hole in a tiled shower cubicle wall where water had got past...

    Excuse me moggy, my bean planter isn't actually a toilet!

    Rather than hijack Bob's fruit cage thread, I thought I'll start afresh. There is no forum for feline excrement problems so here I am! I'm pondering what to do with our moggy latrine problem. My moggy is in fact not my moggy. It's a stray that has adopted me because I made the mistake of...

    Addendum to Bob's Photobucket guide

    I just happened to be in Photobucket today to post the pics of Terry from the weekend and came across Bob's useful sticky on the procedure. I thought it worth mentioning that I suspect PB have slightly changed their functionality because now when you click on the little cog wheel you get this...

    Motor Challenges

    This one I'm rather hoping will be right up your street Bob. Today I went to see a good quality lathe, an original Woodfast, made in Australia, before Record starting badging them and making them in China. Its got a 1HP 3phase motor and an inverter and its broken. It's previous owner, a...

    Forum time and real time (Greenwich)

    Obviously there is only one place where time really counts and that's good ol' Blighty. Is the forum hosted from Europe somewhere as I notice posts are exactly +1 hour....like it's on Paris time or some such heathen place where they have no understanding that WE invented time!!!

    Hello (officially)

    I thought that I ought to introduce myself properly. Though I joined in August, major health problems in my family (8 yr old and wife) have curtailed my woodworking activity to the point of zero. Having got a little bit involved providing some labour to Terry (my neighbour) in his excellent...

    Whats the algorithm?

    That causes the view in "view new posts" to purge itself of the threads? In other words what event triggers the list of threads to change? For example when I logged after lunch there were about 8 threads on the go, then I went and turned some apples and came back...now there were only 2. It's...
