What kind of woodworking tools did you ask Santa for? And Did you get everything on your list?

Hmmm...didn't get the new powermatic lathe but got the new hollowing tool, couple of drive centers, tachometer, pen makers drill bits, and many books :good2:

Nice!!!!
 
Since I am santa to myself....lets see. I didn't have the funds for a new sawstop table saw but. I did get a new winch which you all saw, a new vice for the metal shop, a new coffee maker, so I guess santa was good to me, lol.
 
I ordered some 24" bar clamps. Haven't come in yet, but that's my present! Tony
 
Found a twofer sale at online store-got 2 roughing gouges, plus ordered & got the dogleg attachment for my AB so the toolrest can be closer. AND I got some gift cards from Woodcraft, seems I'm hard to buy for.
 
Rocky does not ask Santa for tools, because lord only knows what bargain bin Santa will find them in!
 
We did Christmas with my parents when they were out to visit Thanksgiving weekend. They gave me a small shop vac and a respirator. Already have a shop vac and a respirator, but I'd been wanting a second of each - that way I can have a respirator and a shop vac in each shop space. Lugging the big shop vac up and down stairs between the garage and basement shops was a real hassle.

In-laws gave me a gift certificate to Tools for Working Wood. Wife told me to go ahead and order a couple sets of clamps while I'm ordering from TFWW.

Favorite shop thing though was a few little building kits we bought for our 4 year old - something the two of us can work on and build together.

Marc, how about you? Haven't seen your answer to the question. What'd you get?
 
I very rarely get anything related to my shop/hobbies as gifts. I either have most everything I need or the things I want are fairly obscure so would be difficult/expensive for anyone to get for me. I did get a bunch of lego sets from my kids and a couple really fun t-shirts so I'm plenty happy. I'd rather see my kids enjoy the day than worry about myself.
