How to tidy up a hole using a forstner bit.

This is a handy tip if you ever need to tidy up a hole in something wooden, in my case it was were holes had been made in the back of an Oak tv unit, I could have made things easier for myself by using clamps, but it worked out in the end.

If you don't have forstner bits then holes saw would work just as well.

Simple to make cat scratcher...

A quick slide show of the steps I used to make a cat scratcher, luckily I had some wood which worked well for this as it already had grooves in it, and we always have cardboard about the house and as the cardboard wears out we can easily replace it.

The design is as basic as you can get really, but there's no reason you couldn't make it in a different shape, or with a slight angle or even one that sits upright.

Overall it cost nothing in materials to make, it's all recycled stuff and the cat seems to like it.
