Looks like I’m first up…

Thank-you very much Secret Santa. A very useful and beautifully made marking gauge.

Santa gave me this gorgeous “Roubo style pencil gauge made from English pear, American cherry + flamed sycamore (wedge)” and a box of pencils.





I am afraid my pictures don’t do it justice. I am very pleased and it will be so useful! Thank you Santa.

We're both absolutely blown away with our clock. It is stunning. Thank you Secret Santa.

Absolutely blown away by the generosity of my Secret Santa. A goregeus box to keep my pencils in (how did you know I am sure your elves have been spying). A lovely marking gauage, workshop pencil and notebook. And on top of that a very thoughtfull turning blank for my wife (who also sends her thanks). I will also be trying the Goibada later when the family have gone.

Thank you Secret Santa - I'm very grateful for a gift that will see a lot of use in my new hobby

Totally blown away by my gift - huge amount of work and lovely message as well following last year’s event. Thank you so very much. (Assuming the articulated hook at the top / rear is a nod to the Victorian grand tour cabinet for fruit for the birds?).

Thank you secret Santa for my awesome screwdriver, card, and chocolates. The screwdriver is from Leadwood and has a lovely feel and weight in the hand. Mrs Fitzroy has eyes on it for our house screwdriver as it is infinitely prettier than the horrid plastic handled one, whilst I agree on the looks I disagree regards where it should reside. The Fitzroy boys snaffled a chocolate each before I could defend them, but I got the caramel so was happy. Merry Christmas to all and especially my UKW 2024 secret Santa.

Some amazing gifts already.
A big thank you to my not-so-secret santa, a beautifully hand carved spoon, his and hers hand etched glasses and his and hers pens, SWMBO loves them and sends her thanks
