2021 Secret Santa.

[Droogs]

@Phil Pascoe mine will be away on monday, waiting for the part I cant make without a forge and hammer to arrive.

I hope mine doesn't get confiscated by customs for being constructed from endangered species.

cool, always wanted a Vaquita skinned handled Black Rhino horn marking knife

Damn, is Siamese rosewood endangered?

 

[Phil Pascoe]

iirc all rosewoods are.

Actually, I believe there are only a few rosewoods really endangered. But custom officials can not decipher between types of rosewood, as there are over 500 types, I think, so they put them all on cities. Siamese being the top one. In Thailand they guard the last standing large Siamese 24 hours a day. I have a large 2 thick inch board I got 20 years ago with paperwork when it was allowed to be legally imported. How many tools do we all have with rosewood handles on, from days gone past? In China one bed in rosewood can sell for over a million dollars.

Any more to add? We're past the half way mark.
Time to get your fingers out. I would edit the title but the edit facility is no more. Irritating.

 

[Stigmorgan]

Only a few postal days left to ensure delivery on time

 

[Droogs]

Mine goes tomorrow

 

[scooby]

I’m off to visit parents tonight and spend Christmas with them so I won’t be home for a few weeks. Got a relative keeping an eye out for any post/deliveries so I’ll update when secret Santa turns up. Without meaning to sound presumptuous.

 

[Phil Pascoe]

Any more posted?

 

[stuckinthemud]

Paint is drying, will post soon

Hello Cats,

Finished my gift this evening and will send first class tomorrow. My present also received safely and ready to go under the Christmas tree. Thank you Santa.

Look forward to seeing all the gifts in due course - can't wait!

Merry Christmas forum friends.

Tony.
