2025 Christmas gifts

[SD_Prairie_Goat]

Practical things for me this year.

Temporary tire chains for when I get stuck. They rachet onto the rim, wasn't to go test them out but now the snow melted

New broad heads cause I lost too many arrows this year

New shoulder strap for my fhf bino harness

Electric hands warmers

 

[Dave N]

Got exactly what I asked for. Nothing! But I did get to spend some time laying on the floor playing with my granddaughter passing a toy back and forth. Priceless.

Best saw you’ll ever own

My FIL has one and that thing runs really good for what it is.

That Husqvarna 562XP is such a piece of $hit. I HATED that saw. I am going to get it fixed and that sucker is going down the road. CHEAP.

 

[Ben Lamb]

Got a 6 month subscription to a snack box full of tasty treats from around the world.

Why did you wait so long?

 

[Nick87]

My old man gets it for me and now one for the kids every year. My absolute favorite.

 

[Big Sky Guy]

Got the lightest chainsaw in North America, Echo 2511PN. Also my FIL got me this book which looks pretty neat. However I was immediately frustrated because .280ai is not listed as one of the 50 in the table of contents nor is the cartridge on the cover stated, as the author said he wants us to guess, which I also think is .280ai? I took a pic of .280ai on left and a 7prc on the right of the cover photo, seems like it’s slightly bigger than scale .280ai? Maybe I’ll understand once I finish it.

 

[Mallardsx2]

Why did you wait so long?

I know right.

I spent so much money on that 562xp that I just really wanted to make myself like it. But its hard to like something that wont stay running when your doing your final cut in a 30" diameter poplar tree leaning towards your garage......jfc.

Never ran anything but a stihl. Old man would've disowned me, so thats all I've ever known.

 

[BigHornRam]

We bought a new kitchen table and chair set. It is made from hickory, and will match the kitchen cabinets. Delivery on Tuesday, to give me some time to finish the trim work in the dining area. Picture pending.

From my wife....

A 21 day backpack hunt in the Northwest Territories for Dall's sheep.

 

[shrapnel]

Another one?

Yes, I was looking at taking my Triumph motorcycle to Arizona for a winter run about driver. Once I looked at the traffic in the greater Phoenix area, I decided a motorcycle isn't a good idea.

I started looking at classic cars, and found a nice 1953 MT TD in Henderson, Nevada and when I went through Henderson on my way to Phoenix, I called the salesman to see about this MG. He didn't answer the phone and when he called back, he said he could meet me in an hour and a half at the dealership.

I told him I wasn't going to wait that long and had he answered his phone at 8:30 we could have made arrangements. I would have bought this car if everything checked out...

 

[Straight Arrow]

Super Savage 7mm Rem Mag already-dialed-in Randy Travis special rifle, with soft case.

[Irrelevant]

First edition, in very good condition. One of my favorite novels

 

[Gellar]

3 lbs of Mike and Ike’s, aaa and aa lithium batteries, and permission to get a truck bed cover or camper cover, whichever I decide I want.

I got my lady friend gift cards to get her nails done, and gift cards to buy books, and Starbucks and some handmade plates from our neighbor that she saw at his pottery show a few months ago.

The lady friend once again hit it out of the park buying for the kids. Getting them everything they wanted and didn’t need.

 

[Nick87]

Getting them everything they wanted and didn’t need.

I've been tripping all over and stepping on all that shit they wanted and didn't need for the last twenty four hours. God damn those little plastic parts hurt the feet.
