What to get a guy who has everything?

depending on what sort of projects he likes doing – you might be able to find him a nice exotic piece of lumber.

I say grab him something vintage. A plane, a spokeshave, a brace, etc. They can all be had for under 20 clams at flea markets, tage sales, and ebay. Or you could go with some shop paraphanalia such as a Stanley picture or poster.

My kids got me a sign for my shop. Love it and it’s displayed prominently. I agree. Use your skills and make something. Doesn’t have to be for the shop, though.

I actually love using this item in my shop…amazing quality at a low price. Can’t have too many either…

I decided to make something for my Dad. My holdup was the fact that my tablesaw crapped out on me so I am very limited in what I am able to build. So, I’ve decided to build him an LED lamp that he can clamp into any t-track system and plug in. I am building it out of a dowel. I will post pictures when I am finished.
