I was wondering what you would make for a mothers birthday? I was thinking probably some kind of box, maybe a wooden mirror, any thoughts?

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!

Three ideas, a tea tray, maybe with drop down legs for bed use. A long handled back brush for the shower. Or a shoehorn, but for the life of me I can’t think how to make one, perhaps veneers between two halves of a mould?

Perhaps a photograph frame?
Do you have a lathe?

As Ian said, a tray might be a good idea. If you fancy a challenge, you could make one with splayed dovetails. I made this one a while ago (I think I did a thread on it). It was hard but good fun.
