A simple set of Santa's Reindeer Christmas ornaments. This would make a nice gift set.

I have known Tyler online for a few years. We have talked via email many times. A few weeks ago I attended the Klinkspore Woodworking show in North Carolina. Tyler lives not far from there so he made the trip up. We did not have long to talk because the show was so busy but I enjoyed our visit very much. Tyler is a very nice young man and a wonderful craftsman.
Our hobby tends to be a solitary pastime. We work in our shops mostly alone and lost in our thoughts. I have to admit that I enjoy the alone time in the shop but I also enjoy getting to meet others who enjoy scrolling and woodworking.
If you can find a local woodworking group you should consider attending. Sharing what we do makes the hobby even more rewarding. Even if you can just find a couple of craftsmen and women who want to get together for coffee once a month it's worth the time.
The Bucket Boss Canvas Shop Apron:

I have spoken about the Bucket Boss shop apron before but I want to mention it again. I like to wear an apron while I work in the shop. I tend to be messy with glue, paint, and finishes. My apron takes the worst of this mess so it needs to be replaced about once a year.
Years ago I was spending close to $50 on an apron. Replacing it was just too expensive to do often. Then I found the Bucket Boss. Not only did I like the quality of the apron but it was cheap. At $16.99 my wallet does not roll over when I need another apron.
I have now ordered six of these aprons. None of the six wore out. I replaced them because they were a big glue and paint mess.
I like the comfort of the Bucket Boss apron. The shoulder straps are slightly padded. The material is tough but not stiff and heavy. The pockets are just big enough for small tools and pencils. This apron will also fit a larger guy like myself.
You can buy higher quality aprons. You just can't afford to get them dirty. If you want a decent apron that you are not afraid to give some abuse then the Bucket Boss is a great option.
This is one of those items you can put on your Christmas list and not feel guilty about the cost.
Personalized Christmas Ornament Patterns:
I am still making good progress on ornament patterns. I should be able to get caught up today. If you have orders in the queue, keep your eye on your email inbox.
The price is $1 per name with a 5 name minimum. I keep the price as low as possible
because I want everyone to have a chance to make these ornaments for family and friends.
You only pay after you have received the order and are
100% satisfied with the patterns. Invoice included with
the pattern email. Pay by credit card(secure Paypal), check, or cash.
The patterns will be emailed to you after they are completed.
Please allow up to a week for delivery.
You can use last names on the ornaments if you like but remember that the more letters the more
difficult they are to cut. Ten letters and up gets pretty small. If you need to you can enlarge the patterns by 10% to make the interior cuts larger. No special characters are supported. I can get a hyphen in there but it looks odd. It has to connect the two letters so it does not just fall out.
