• 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!

    Mike builds a teardrop (doors, cedar strips, ironmongery)

    I've seen a lot of the canoe builders use metal as backing strips when steam bending which I guess helps eliminate this kind of breakout. Just gives the wood some extra support.

    Seven Heirlooms - and one for my great niece, too.

    Really enjoying seeing your progress with these. Can I ask why you fit the frets before the fretboard is fixed to the neck? I'd have thought it would be easier to fix a fretboard to the neck without frets but much the same to do the fretwork on neck as on an unattached fretboard?

    Mike's ext'n & renovation (solar panels)

    Phew. That's a relief! Probably just imagine you were putting it up for sale and doing a brochure for it. Nice pictures showing the whole house off and some maybe highlighting the most significant features as you see them. The bits you are most proud of.

    Mike's ext'n & renovation (solar panels)

    I can't believe it's been 10 years! I joined this forum to read your workshop build but have kept coming back for updates on this amazing project. I don't think I could adequately put into words how much respect I have for your abilities, work ethic, perseverance and artistry that you have...

    Hi Folks. Apologies in advance for this not being a workshop build, or indeed woodwork related, but since I joined this forum a few years back I have been very impressed with the knowledge of the forum members and I can't think of a better place to get advice. :eusa-clap: So on to the...

    If you could only have one saw.......

    OK, so this is a complete clueless newbie question so please forgive me. :oops: If you could only have one power saw what would it be? And why? I'm thinking the choice is between circular, table, mitre or outside possibility of a bandsaw. I already have a jigsaw. Please enlighten me with your...
