You guys seriously need to get a list made. Just how many ties and sweaters do you really need?

Mike

got the fret slotting blade and template from LMI for my birthday from my parents. my parents also already gave me my christmas present (money) and i plan on buying as many fretting tools as i can. so yeah, they are pretty awesome. other than that i just want to spend time with family and not go to work.

I got my Christmas stuff early cause I've been good.
I got an OK for the stuff I bought at LMI, A new fret saw, some wood, and other odds and ends.
The Mrs got me my first Lazy boy recliner chair, (I'm 52) You can play the guitar on it, sleep on it too. Great invention.
All the family will be home for Christmas, greatest gift I can think of for me.

That fence is awesome Chris, congrats.

I went through the Stew Mac catalog and circled all the stuff I wanted. A box came from them the other day and my wife won't let me open it, so I'm not sure. But I can't wait for Christmas!!!

I used Amazon.com's new universal wishlist feature. You can add stuff to your amazon wishlist from anywhere on the web. Very handy if anyone wants to use it in the future...I'm hoping to get the Veritas low angle jack plane & a bunch of stewmac fretting tools.

Mine came early too. Rod True told me about an add on Craig's List. It was a Performax 10/20 thickness sander in perfect shape with all the bells and whistles attached. Its sitting in the garage.

Just some quality time with some luthier(s) that excel in their craft.

Terry bro remember your old OLF pals and maybe take some pictures to post?

A venturi from LMI so I can clamp a bridge on my first guitar that has upper bout sound holes.

hi all
I have enough “possessions” (for now), what I am wishing for is the end result of this activity we all indulge ourselves in, music.
I want to write a tune for my wife, daughter and son in-law, in thanks for the immeasurable care love they have given me since my heart attack in November - words are not enough - oh well time yet.
That's all that's on my list.
A happy christmas to you and yours and a’ the best in ‘09.
Geordie
