Well I guess most haven't started yet. But im pretty sure my guy is going to get some home made bbq sauce, honey, mild, and Creole.  It will be the stuff I had at mojam for those that had tried it already. Also im going to include a fire piston im working on. Not sure what else is going in the box but I will think of something.

I have an idea for what I would like to try and do for my present, but it is something I have never tried before so it will be a bit experimental as well...if you want a hint it does involve cutting down a tree. Not that much we do around here doesn't. I also have a little set of raw materials that will go along, and something else as the 'big draw' if the experiment doesn't work the way I want it to.

I cut and stained some silver maple coasters. Six in total. I need to put a cork base on them. Just one of many ideas.

I have a freezer full of copperheads that need to be skinned but I'm not sure I will have a matched pair.

Not sure exactly what I'm doing for my guy yet. But I'm thinking some trad points are in order. I have kind of a new take on them. Going to see if I can make one work first. Then probably something made of leather, just got to think of what it is first. Not sure after that. But whatever it is, it will be cool at least I hope so.

That would be cool for whoever gets it--match or no match.

I have a few ideas, maybe a quiver of some sort or maybe something else. Still a bit early to know for sure.

I am not in on the trade, but that has not stopped me.  I have a few things started and am thinking of more to add. 

This will be ready to ship just in case.

A quiver would be cool, my blue nylon just doesn't go well with a primitive bow.

All sound like good ideas. Skins would be sweet! A quiver would be nice, anything really. My recipient is getting a knife an some other stuff.
