• 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!

    Pond revamp

    The glass arrived, laminated toughened and weighs a tonne. Well 56kg. The koi hobby is one of those things where as soon as you put the name onto a product the price doubles. Black silicone, probably £6 a tube, koi version £20 a tube I got the rebate fibreglassed. I have a friend who does grp...

    White “Faskut” saw

    Stenner resaws are the dogs nuts. They often get shipped to africa. I think you either have to run the bottom wheel partially in a pit or raise the machine. A 5 head moulder would need some serious extraction and power

    How The Spindle Moulder Gained Its Notoriety

    They are handy things and are not as scary as they look, I use a set on my CK Radial arm saw. You'd think they would try and walk through the work but they dont.

    hacked debit card

    Weirdly I was perusing my banking app and noticed an odd payment to uber. I've never got an uber in my life and do not subscribe.

    White “Faskut” saw

    I was going to say you'd be lucky to get the blade spinning with 3-4hp, never mind cutting anything. Another thing is when blades get to that size they get expensive and the art of tensioning a blade is dead.

    hacked debit card

    I help my sister manage her pennys, make sure DD's are setup that kind of thing. Every so often I check her online statements. I got a shock yesterday because there were loads of payments for small amounts £15 and £18. All to a company called Beyond who are a mobile phone company in australia...

    Pond revamp

    That was harder than I thought it would be. Note the catwalk ladder for safe ingress into the pond. I found to my horror that normal ladders dont like fibreglassed areas. Just managed to save myself. swmbo had a cunning idea, wouldnt it be nice to see the fishys from the house. Theres a...

    Pricing your work to sell

    I tried selling turned items at fairs a couple of times, ranging from big fruit bowls to little oak door wedges. Far too disheartening to keep trying. I still have a couple of crates of stuff in the loft. The only time I made money was selling magic wands with quarts ends to a hippy shop.

    Pond revamp

    My sister lives a few doors down and I noticed that boggy smell, she had raw sewage coming up where the kitchen drain goes into. Covered a decent area. Council maintenance man came with his rods and said nope. The local water authority were called. Stuck his camera in. Apparently he thinks the...

    Pond revamp

    I built this pond maybe 17years ago, it is block work fibreglassed. About four years ago a fish died without me noticing and made the water go bad which killed all of my koi. My own fault and totally preventable. We'd had some of the fish for over 20years. It has sat since then just stagnating...

    How much???

    I keep telling the mrs that she lives in 'an owld council hoose' and buying bags of that nature is not befitting of her station. Now if someone very rich bought the seaton chest to use that would be impressive.
