• 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!

On my to do list for this year was to replace the roof on my old stable now wood store. That was before a few health issues intervened. I am back in hospital tomorrow so tidying up before I go. I went in the wood store to find water all over the floor. Looked up to see daylight. One of the purlings had failed at the wall completely rotted through. The structure was holding itself up. So I jacked it up with a bottle jack and 6x2 placed several blocks of wood between a dividing wall and the purling 12” back from the end. I hope that will survive until I can get a roofer in to do the job.
Just what I needed (not).
 
(Purlin). Yeah, that's where they always fail. Sounds like you've got it under control, and that you've got more important things to think about. Good luck with both.
