Website:
I've been a Lurker for a while, and have decided to become public. Some of you may recognise me from TheWoodWhisperer site.
My interests are Woodworking (duh!), Alternative energy, Sustainability.
I generally try to use rescued wood as far as possible, except for composite boards like plywood, MDF etc., and all wood I buy must be from sustainable sources.
My woodworking is largely on hold at the moment, as I am working away from home, and my home trips are mostly filled with other activities.

A few months ago I bought a dial gauge ‘cos I knew it was time to replace my planer knives. I decided not to but a holder for it, but rather make one. Take one parquet floor block (see previous post) and set a pair of magnets in the bott...

Several years ago my step-dad gave me a few dozen 9” X 3” floor blocks when he ripped them out of his home. They are really grungy with decades of polish, varnish, dirt, scratches (patina lol) on the upper side, and solidified bitumen...

No, I don’t mean you have to swallow the stuff – ugh!! What I mean is the barn has no doors yet, and swallows fly through it quite often. The farm has been chosen as a migration destination by several pairs of European swallows, an...
