    So, it's a little early for me to normally be thinking about this, but with all the Christmas threads popping up on here, I couldn't help thinking about it.

    So don't blame me for this thread... look in the mirror, and blame yourself! :p :D

    So far, I've taken a shine to this tie or maybe another from the same range like this one. :cool:

    What about you?

    A wii. Or a membership to an upscale gym.

    And I like the blue one.

    I already got my big Christmas present- my new laptop. :p But I do want some cross-stitch charts and a beading calendar.

    I always have more fun getting presents for my family anyway!

    I was already listening to James Bond by Scouting for Girls when that started playing. Not a combination I'd recommend! :lol:

    I figure I'll have to get it for myself, but a trip to Chattacon is #1 on my wish list right now.

    (Don't ask. You'll be reaching for the insulin. :angel:)

    A proper AXA style quick-change toolholder for my lathe, a turret for the tailstock, a drill-chuck and a hollow-mill with four specific sets of cutters (see attached drawings) as well as a set of boring bars (see attached specifications) and three sets of HSS and two sets of indexable cemented carbide cutters (see attached chart).

    Sounds like alot but I think I can swing all that after tax season provided (!) that SWMBO keeps HER job and this gig pushing wood-stoves lasts.

    Failing that... I wish for a decent job in a machine-shop as a setup-operator. No leadership No material handling. No "other duties as assigned." (see attached resume and salary requirements)

    I'd like, just for once, to be able to sit down for my Christmas dinner, pull a cracker and actually get a decent joke from it and a decent present.

    That is all that I wish for this Christmas. :vulcan:
