What tools, if any are you guys expecting for the holidays. For that matter, What else are you hoping for. I am hoping for a a double bass pedal and some new cymbals for my drums. Maybe a Kuryakyn gift certificate for some Harley parts. Don't usually let my loved ones buy tools because I am pretty specific in what I want. Hope you and yours have a happy holiday.

I know for sure I'm getting a new set of Klein nut drivers and a new oval inspection mirror. I know it's not fancy stuff, but that's what I need at the moment.

I. Am hoping for a cd player with aux input so I can listen to my iPhone in my truck. It is only am/fm no cassette . I used to just get a casette with aux out jack and use that cost $2.30 and sounds better than those FM transmitters
Happy holidays everyone

Hmmm... when I read the first post... thought this was tools... then I find it is also toys... :)
My hobby is photography... have had it on the back burner the last 3 years taking care of Dad until he 'went home' last summer.
Bought myself a new camera (body only) and flash over THXgiving:

Yes, they are kinda high end stuff... I have 7 high end lenses already.
Used to do some back-up work with a couple of PRO photographers... learned a bunch. Now it is just fun.
On the tool front: For my B-day in Oct, I bought myself a new hammerdrill;

My 2 daughters insisted for me to give them a wish list since they're expecting something nice from me. I don't want them to spend anything for it but they're so persistent I thought of a couple tools that may come handy and don't cost too much.
My wife surprised me with a 13" MacBook Pro as an advanced christmas gift when Best Buy had them on sale. I was happy of course. :)
a nice carhart winter hat, a brand new veto pro pack tech-lc bag, winter gloves and some quilted shirts...

I did get one of those. I didn't consider it a tool. It works great.

Whenever you need to go for outing on your own bike always keep complete tool kit with you.

I keep a variety of tools on my bike. Not sure I know what to do with them if I break down.

Was not aware this was made... googled it.
Nice jacket... up to the usual Milwaukee quality standards.
In the South... I probably will not need one... however it would be nice to have for those days one finds themselves in the cold all day.
