• 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!

    Block plane conversion

    I missed the end of the program where the items are given a value by an antique expert. A google search suggested between £35 & £60

    Woo Hoo....Reacher's back

    Part of the fun for use is before the start of each episode we try to guess a) How will he get out of the last impossible situation and b) how many more ridiculous ways are there to kill someone.

    Passport at the ready

    I had a play with auto park in a car park. Straight reverse between two cars. I have not yet tried a kerbside parallel park.

    Passport at the ready

    Is it a push button start Bob? 6 months on with my Touran and muscle memory still makes me try and insert and remove the key from the steering column. Hope it has a button for auto stop start. Some new cars have to be done on the touch screen every time you get in the car. I also hope you can...

    Un Rabot de Menuisier

    Thanks for all that Andy. Grandad born in 1900 didn’t serve in WW2 (gammy leg and protected profession as an engineer for EMI (radar development) in Hayes). He could well have bought it new earlier than the 50’s, or even secondhand. I also have a small Disston, No4 I think, with his name it.

    Un Rabot de Menuisier

    Well I never. A long time since I last used it. No sign of EMIR just a circle and a 2 (for 2") it also still has the price label, 13/6; which I would rather not remove but I doubt there is room for EMIR to be written underneath The plane would have belonged to my maternal grandfather and bought...

    Un Rabot de Menuisier

    Are European planes less likely to have a wee striking knob on the front? This is my inherited woodie plane which is normally used just as a scrub plane.

    The Tapestry

    To the victors go the spoils surely? I'm horrified at the ticket prices to see it at the BM. Was 12 euro last time we went it in Bayeux.
