well, i know you are looking for a list of tools and i definitely have one, but at this point i have everything i need to build a guitar. there are tools that would make life easier and probably help to create a better finished product, but all i really want for christmas is the materials to build another guitar! my brain is filled with ideas and my wallet is filled with moths!

I just have a thing for chisels. These ones make my knees weak.

I'm asking for a cradle for my binding cutter.

Mmm, and maybe a blank 20x8 chassis from turretboards.com and some circuit board blanks.

I have a lot of things that I would like to have, but my wife and I have decided to boycott "shopping". I really could use some clothes, but until one can buy jeans, shirts and shoes made in USA again, I'm not buying.
We're about ready to join the Rev. Billy's Church of No Shopping. So, not a dime for Christmas except Goodwill bellringers. Last year I got my wife a goat from OXFAM.

Todd, 'fraid I'm a leather shoe kinda guy. I've got that covered though. Red Wing boots and Gokeys are made in USA and Allen Edmonds is in Wisc. Got enough of them to hold me till I croak. I used to buy a lot of CC Filson, but even a lot of their clothing is made elsewhere now. Jeans and shirts are another matter...time for the 2nd hand store...

I want a Fuji Mini-Mite 3 HPLV from Santa but that's probably not going to happen so maybe I can get a Porter Cable ROS instead. Does Santa shop at Lowes?
