I was trying to find the thread about insurance for woodworkers & nothing seems to work.
I tried a few other searches & they failed as well.
I searched for posts by me with teaching in them & got the message "
Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms.
"
I also tried, markets selling limited demos people. Nothing.
I tried, tool tuition test lathe. Nothing.
I tried them with a blank user name field & only people & lathe get a result & then there are hardly any results.

Until it is sorted use google with "site:http://www.woodworkforums.com" tacked on the end.

Being the renowned "searcher" that I am (Please amend "Renowned" to hopeless) I tried "insurance for woodworkers" and all that came up was this thread.

His ubeaut-ship has been tinkering in the back room and seems to have fixed it. Try it now.

PS Oh yeah...... Almost forgot. I turned off the supposedly fantastic Fulltext search engine and reverted to the vBulletin search engine. Also deleted the fulltext indexes and rebuilt the vBulletin one last night (3.5 hrs) we are short a days posts in the index but not going to re-index it again now as it's a massive server intensive load on the system.
Still can't do a 3 letter search even though I set it to 2 letter minimum. Guess it's just not possible.
Um ..... "Insurance for woodworkers" there's only one thread apart from this one however Insurance brings up a sheeit load of results, between 1122 and 1967
