2022 Secret Santa

all bits and wood in workshop, now just need to do it!

I’m with Fitzroy, got the roughing out done, just got the actual shaping, sanding, and finishing. D’you think a roughed out carving blank and a set of instructions is going to be OK?

 

[Phil Pascoe]

Only you can know.

Probably would if you also included some starting chisels and stuff

 

[Stigmorgan]

Fingers crossed mine will be ready to post by Thursday latest.

I got mine done - It actually went quite smoootly once I got going. In the post and on it's way

The last 8 weeks haven’t been the best, have a plan, have materials, just need it to not go wrong now

 

[thetyreman]

mine's in the post now

The last date for posting 2nd class R.M. was yesterday, apparently, and they are on strike 23/12 and 24/12, so it's probably wise if all you slowcoaches use a courier.

Mine went today to my s/s target. RM 1st class so fingers crossed they step away from the brazier long enough to drop it off for me!

 

[Phil Pascoe]

Mine has gone.

 

[bp122]

Mine will be finished by Friday and posted / couriered on Friday or Saturday.

Seriously, it's like someone tricked the time and gave only 3 hours a day in December!

 

[Stigmorgan]

Just got mine sent, post office says it will arrive on time.

Greetings forum friends,

I posted my gift at lunchtime today, on it's way North. I used a parcel firm and it should arrive at the weekend/early next week.

Look forward to seeing all the gifts in due course, always exciting and interesting. Hopefully, I have drawn Karl Holtey out of the hat this year.

Merry Christmas,

Tony (Escudo)

WHAT! mine has landed in UK. with second box Landing tommorrow they say! hopefully the Royal Post doesn't sit on it with job action !

 

[Phil Pascoe]

It's understandable. The couriers are run ragged because of the R.M. strikes.

well sometimes it takes job action to get a decent living wage. but here in Canada these Government employees with all there benefits and retirement packages doing a job that requires zero education making more than me in there life times. i think they are a little out of touch of the recession proof jobs they have and how the rest of us live and really how high they are paid.
just my 2 cents!
