What did U get U for Xmas?

[buildit]

So yes, if you have passed that magical age where people still enjoyed your smiling face, you are the best gift giver you have. So what did you get yourself for Christmas because no one else was going to get it for you? :lol:

I got a bathroom, garage door opener and sectional couch. :drinking:

 

[Dutchs_tfa]

New Google Pixel XL2 phone. And a new super heavy duty WOODS bush hog.....

So far I bought myself some chocolates as stocking stuffers. I am hoping for a motorcycle though

Don't tell her I said this but she wants two motorcycles. :bigeyes: But she doesn't really have a good place to keep them.

Nice buildit, I love the tile in the bathroom.

I got a week off of work the 2nd week in January or ........... If my Sooners win the Rose Bowl on January 1st, my wife and I will be going to the National Championship game in Atlanta. It's kind of both of our Christmas presents.

 

[SHOOTER13]

I'm getting myself a firearm...just haven't decided on which one yet.

Old School...

I got me an Amazon Kindle Fire HD 8 tablet for $50. I like to play games on my Galaxy phone in bed before sleeping so I got the tablet instead. Bigger screen and more memory means lots of games to choose from. :lil guy:

Now that's one nice Christmas present. You must have been extra good this year.

 

[Haertig]

A new 8-port gigabit switch, new dual-band router to use as a second Access Point (still trying to decide on which model), and some more Cat-5e cables. Oh, and an Amazon Echo Dot. Actually bought three of those for my mom, but I think now she'll only get two after I absconded with one for myself. Also picked up a second Raspberry Pi to use as a dedicated Nextcloud and Calibre server. Outside of the electronics, I also bought myself two additional Morakniv heavy-duty Companions when Amazon put them up on sale last week. Now I see they're on further sale for even cheaper this week!

If you haven't gotten yourself any Moras, go get some. Even high end knife snobs like them. Excellent knives, and dirt cheap.

 

[Retired1]

A Champion electric motor powered clay pigeon thrower and a case of Remington 12 ga target shells. I got both when they were on sale. My wife wrapped them, put them under the tree, and won't let me have them until Christmas.

I want a TW200 for Christmas and then I am thinking about a cruiser for being on the road

You would so be tired of a 200 so fast it would be a total waste of money....

I'd love to get a bike but with my health issues it would need to be a trike. There was one at the bike shop last year that was a custom made Harley trike but I couldn't get a loan for it or any standard bike for that matter,my credit sucks right now.

I know a guy who just sold his trike for a ridiculously low price. It was a Goldwing. I got to drive it before he sold it. It was fun but not what I want for now.

I understand that,I was just saying with my leg issues I doubt I could hold a heavy bike up long,in fact some days even a small bike up long,I'd much rather have a bike than a trike. 2 thumbs up to you for getting a bike or 2,I envy you in a way.

Sorry if I came off as rude. I am all for people getting whatever is right for them. I don't think I would even try the 2 wheel version of a heavy bike right now. That is why I am looking at starting on something that is small and easy to manage.

No you didn't come off as rude,I just thought you thought I was suggesting you getting a trike when I wasn't,I just wanted you to know I wasn't trying to persuade you is all and I wish I could get a bike like you're doing is all.

 

[gumpy]

Sigh!! Me too. I started riding when I was 15. Had to quit in 2011 after spine fusion. To many crashes I guess. Especially when I used to race proffesional motocross.

The TW200s are really nifty off-road bikes (useless for highway riding). I sold mine to get a KLR650. Bad mistake by me.

I have a woods finishing mower and it's been doing my 5 acres for 15 years now with nothing more than one new set of blades, a gear fluid change and three belts. They make good equipment in my book. :wink:
