I'd take a winning MegaMillion ticket...
More realistically:
a magazine subscription (Countryside - used to subscribe but haven't the last couple of years)
a couple of books (both about Button Quail)
wood clamps (about 4 -- I have lots of small clamps but only one or two bigger clamps. I need something big enough to clamp 2x4s & 2x6s)
router bits (just some basic ones - tongue & groove & dovetail, especially, plus one that does narrow slots/slits in the wood)
Sort of dream items that I'm not asking for:
Firepit for outside (with the wind screen)
Garden cart ($69 at
TSC - smaller model of a cart I already own)
Those super duper warm winter boots that keep your feet warm at about -50 degrees. Ice cleats for the bottom, too.
What I'm buying myself:
Merino Wool socks from Orscheln's - at least 2 pair. About $5 each.
Already bought myself a bunch of tools for "Christmas" and my "birthday" Found good deals & got them early - table saw, band saw, lots of smaller clamps, hand miter saw setup, workshop table... Gotta love estate sales!
