2009 Handtool Secret Santa

[TrimTheKing]

until I find the mojo to box it up and waddle my fat ar$e to the post office

oh god someone's got a wait on their hands :roll: :lol:

Hahaha, I really don't know what it is but I just seem to be magnetically deflected away from the post office. It takes superhuman strength and willpower to get me there.

Mine is juste bought and sent

I did not have time to make one, with a new born baby 2 monthes ago, and an incredible amount of work to do

Well It was very hard to choose something, I hope my 'Secret Santa' receiver will be happy !

Cheers !

And I got mine today.

SWIMBO opened it thinking it was a present for the baby birth :?
Then she realized it was 'one of those woodworking thing' and rebuilded the pack, that is now waiting for christmas day !

Sounds cool !

I don't know if getting the gift complete so early was such a wise idea. For some reason, even tho I'm really proud of it, I feel the urge to make it again. :roll: :lol:

 

[Blister]

Will be posting mine Friday , all packed ready to go :wink:

:ho2 :deer :ho2

I know what you mean Tom, since I made mine I've made another 4 of varying sizes and I have to say the later ones do look a tad better than the first attempt.

I finished (the part I decided to make) a couple of weeks ago but can't decide whether to post it as I'm really disappointed with it . I'm consoling myself with the knowledge that it's only the second piece of fine woodworking I've ever done so I can't expect perfection. If I send it I hope my recipient can at least appreciate the effort that went into it - it started off so well too .

:deer :deer :deer :deer :ho2 hohoho

Merry Christmas

Can't Wait :shock: :lol: :wink:

 

[Escudo]

Sent my gift away today.

I am happy with how it turned out....(little clue there).

Can't wait for the big day to open my presies.

Tony.

I finished mine yesterday, now I just have to pack it and find a post office I can get to from the office that has not been closed down ;(

Today a parcel from Dieter Schmid arrived. Because I didn't remeber having ordered there the last two days, I opened carefully :-$ and found a note from my secret santa. So the rest of opening follows on 24th evening.

I recieved my present and I know from DHL- tracking that my present found a new home, too!

Thanks a lot, Ed for organizing this, it's big fun.

Cheers Pedder :ho2 :ho2 :ho2 :deer

 

[TrimTheKing]

But then, I haven't posted mine yet either, so can't complain

Pedder, I assume that means you do remember ordering within the last three days... Yes? :wink: :lol:

Nothing here either, but I have every faith in Santa, because I know he exists and he won't let me down. *goes to bookmark NORAD Santa tracking site in order to keep tabs* :ho2
