No tools for me this year but did receive 2 cherry log burls. I posted a pic of the larger one in another thread but unwrapped the small one yesterday. Cell phone pictures don't do it much justice but some really nice figure to this 9"+ bowl. I think I will do a once turned bowl with the other half of the blank later today.

I got to spend the day with my Love. That was the only thing I got, and the only thing I wanted.

Me too! (and a whole houseful of other family). I may buy myself a Christmas present later though....

Got a 180 grit cbn wheel and a 3/8" Sorby fingernail grind bowl gouge. On the negative side I also got a 5 day duluge from mother nature, flooding my basement . Thankfully though, we are safe. Some folks had it much worse.

Robo grinding tool rest to fit my oneway. Came Saturday after Christmas dinner with my wife, children and grandchildren. A great day full of Christmas blessings. Then we watched the Huskers win

Pneumonia.

I already have at least one of every tool Thompson sells so I thought I'd try something else. Not as much fun.

Not specifically for Christmas, but the week before I traded some wood for an old Delta 1460 lathe. It's in great shape, too. First lathe. I need to make space for it and then sharpen the chisels so I can learn how to use it.

My son and his girlfriend announced their engagement! We ADORE her and could not be happier for them! As for tools, the LOML gave me a Kreg band saw fence with the resaw kit and a Wood Slicer resaw blade, my daughter gave me an intro to glass blowing class we'll take together (can't wait to see how much that hobby will cost me!) and I bought the family a Gizmo from JT Tools but oddly, I am the only woodworker. :rolleyes: Santa could take all the tools back as long as we get to keep the new DIL and the time with my daughter!

Happy New Year!
John
