Christmas list

[cabaiguan juan]

What’s on your Christmas list? Cigars or not cigars, I don’t care.
I’m looking for cycling shoes, chainsaw and leaf blower. Plus cigars, and whiskey.

 

[Thoughts]

I asked Santa for a pellet grill since mine just recently rusted out the entire base of it. Also, I asked Santa for no mo kids please

 

[Bsneed51]

New set of wireless earbuds since mine kicked the bucket. And a fleece lined flannel jacket.

 

[smellysell]

Hoping for a ninja suit and some tuning vices.

I need a new pair of good sunglasses, as mine are about ten years old now and the UV coating is delaminating something fierce. Cigars are always good, but don't expect the fam to really be buying me much in that way. I'm always game for new Converse colors that I don't have, too!

I’m hoping to get The Sonos Connect interface so I can dust off the vinyl collection I probably haven’t listened to in 25 years or more. It will allow me to connect and stream wirelessly throughout the home. I pulled it out of a box and found stuff that goes back to when I was about 12. Steppenwolf, Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, Yes, Eric Clapton, Grateful Dead, AC DC, Prince, John Mayall, John Fogerty, Richard Pryor Live Stand Up Comendy, and lots more. Already bought the turntable. ?

Hoping for tools: belt grinder, drill press, Milwaukee M18 sander, that sorta thing.

 

[whylieineedacigar]

Sous vide stuff.. Containers, racks, lids, etc.

 

[Scap]

I'm hoping to pick up some woodworking tools. Hand plane, chisels, dovetail saw, etc.
Of course, a bandsaw and drill press would be awesome too.

I buy my own Christmas presents, all year long.....

It's always fun to be car shopping, around Christmas time. Said nobody.

This!

 

[BlindedByScience]

BTW, which turntable did you end up with, John...?? In a past life, I sold high end audio stuff and was the in house turntable setup guy.

All my biggest wants are intangibles. More free time. Peace of mind. Better health. I guess more booze, smokes, and love from my girl wouldn't be bad either.

 

[CBoukal]

I have the original apple watch. Not the gen 1, the one before it. So hoping for an upgrade

 

[Not A Nice Person]

I buy myself "presents" all year long!

Really all I want this year is what I always ask for---a day with my grandniece Cloey.

And for this reason my wife and I are only filling a stocking for each other.

So my follow up question to everyone was going to be: which of the items listed are you going to buy if you don’t get. BBS got ahead of me there.

 

[The Black Cloud]

Already bought a bottle of rum today (had a 15% off coupon), so there's that.

Nothing special Tom. Just something to get me started. It’s a ION Profile Procand the reason I got it is that I’m interested in taking the tracks and saving them to file so I can listen to the crackle and pop from vinly on a saved file.
