• 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!

A strange request for a butter dish. Made from Beech and a ABW handle, finished with chestnutproducts food safe oil. No blocks of butter were harmed in making this

I could guess that the base was routed out from a single piece of wood using a template or two?

Very nice Derek.

Very nice Derek.

Yes to the one piece of wood, and yes to routed out but without templates

That’s very nice indeed, be interesting to see how it stands up being used, a cut through the finish may show an oily stain? I hope I’m wrong as it would be a shame. Ian
Agreed it's a very pleasant thing and I also think that it's possibly not the best material for a butter dish. Could be wrong, frequently am :eusa-whistle: - Rob
 
Thank you guys. I find Beech is one of the better woods for any food stuff. The oil I used will soak in so butter should not be a problem staining it. Being a hard wood should not damage that easy. Many chopping boards were made of beech as well as spoons and wooden spatulas
 
Very stylish, wood engineering in its "less is more" guise.
