What's in the mail?

Well after my first tryout of the gopro I saw the need for a couple more accessories with some Christmas gift cards. I ordered a mic kit and a light for it

And for the mitersaw station I got this very cool vacuum switch off Amazon. I also like that it's very small in size. Only negative I see so far is that it has a very short cord, but for where I intend to put it that's not going to be an issue.

It has settings for how long it will run after the saw trigger is released. And it was cheaper and had better reviews than the well known name brands.

I've more or less switched to Carhartt. Their flannel lined carpenter jeans are all I wear this time of year. Bonus is I have been able to get factory seconds from Sierra at a significant discount.

I have a bunch of them too. Even the lighter weight Holter jeans. Those are good in the summer. I use em at work welding and they haven't lit up on me....yet.
And just recently some new Levis.
And I have a few pairs of Berne carpenter jeans too. They have big pockets on both sides of the legs. Good for pliers. Same with the flannel lined ones too....

I actually did find 100% cotton Levi 501's on their web site. You have to look for them and scroll down on each type to check the detail specifications. But they do make the old 100% cotton style.
 
I bought one of those boxes at a garage sale. Awesome stuff! I'd buy it again. I use it in the wood shop and for metal work on the lathe.

I passed up on some single rolls at an estate sale this winter. Don’t know why I did this. Three of use bought about 30 lathe gouges for the club. I did come away with an almost new large spindle roughing gouge. The deceased was into turning pretty serious. It appears no one in the club knew him. Had a large homemade lathe.
 
I need to get pens and some other things for sale in the gallery. I was down to one pen kit so I ordered some more. Lucky to have some cherry and maple burl left from my last visit to @Mike1950.Probably going to need some more wood before I’m done.

Yep, those two rather straggly thins. I suspected they were cherry, but not fer shur! That one had Saicos Ground Oil Extra Thin with Saico Hardwax Oil Gloss on top. The small one just had the Saico Hardwax Oil Gloss.

Man thats very cool 😎 it's one of those the wood told you what it wanted to be.
 
So how do we pay for them, chunks of wood sent to the Ripjack homestead?
As much as I want to say yes to that, Mrs rip would not be happy with more wood showing up.
I'll make a topic for em this week.
Paypal or money order worked for me in the past. So most likely them again.
