I have been watching with interest a couple of recent threads about woodworking programmes on TV, but rather than hijack these thought it better to start another one. Just supposing there was to be another woodworking series, exactly what would you like to see featured? Are you more interested...

I know you have been discussing possible new forums, looks to me like there should be a computer problem forum! Can anyone help me please? I have a PC dedicated for internet use only. Usually when I switch it on the clock is wrong. Assuming it was the battery on the board I changed this but it...

Any of you guys know anything about photomicroscopy? I need to produce some photomicrographs of timber cell structure as well as pics of what is happening at a tool cutting edge. Magnification needs to range from about 5X to 100X. I vaguely remember doing all the preparation work and then...
