• 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!

Malcolm's Workbench (Fitting the vice)

Gents, thanks for your kind comments.

Rutlands are sending some bench dogs as I type. I aim to bore holes in line with the tail vice and then some pairs in line with the front vice, like on Rory's bench.

Mark, I gave it a try yesterday and and it stayed un-flexed, but lifted the right end foot off the floor.

Either I back off the plane blade or I need more weight low down! :D

I’ve got a cast iron surface plate for ballast under one bench but a bag of sand would probably do the trick.

I've also seen a short piece of railway rail for sale on eBay as a small anvil. Might go for that.
