• 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!

Some 40 odd years ago a local farmer where we lived lost his horses to a yew tree and hacked it down. To save him burning it I managed to salvage quite a lot, I carted it around all my moves in England just turning up bowls etc. Finally I am making a new telephone table for the hall, just got to finish the top. I will have to buy some ready made veneer as there are no more large chunks to resaw into veneer, I,m not sure over the matching though.

Gorgeous wood, Yew. I wish I had an old stash like yours.

it is very poisonous when eaten by cows, horses etc. Maybe why they are often found in church yards, to keep the grazing animals out.
