Christmas loot

Trish got me Delkevic stainless headers and pipes for the 1975 Goldwing, but we're not really having Christmas until Thursday when our son & DIL get here.

Nice TriStar. I've been eyeballing the bezel less version of my diver they have.

Those boots are wicked sick.  I gotta look into those.

In reply to Brian(formerly neon4891) :

Do it! They aren't GRM friendly prices but I love them. This is the 4th pair of Taft boots this year. My fiancée bought me this pair for my birthday earlier this year. And I bought myself a few pair too lol

You will have all sorts of new friends you didn't know you had. 

i got myself this. I was so surprised. Also bought myself a 12" chef knife (not a typo) bought various gadgets for the kitchen, etc. Swmbo and I didn't really do Xmas for each other because we're trying to do thisswmbo bought her kid a couple video games for the switch she got earlier this year as an early something present. Her 21sr birthday is in a week. I wanted to get her an eviction notice, but swmbo said she wouldn't like it.

My little inner queen is screaming like a little girl getting a pony.

I'm with ya. Those plaid joints were amazing. I can't wear boots tho. They don't fit my feet. Broken too many times.

Scream Queen!

You boot lovers should also look at John Fluevog’s offerings.  

My go to boots:

Only thing I like by John Fluevog are the Tobias loafers lol

My biggest problem with boots is fit. I've broken my right foot at least 4 times and have an absurd instep. Most high lace shoes are out of the question. 

I cashed in some Bezos Bux from work, my fIL, and SWMBO on a nice Baileigh rotary shear.

And one of my fellow vintage 2 stroke enthusiasts sent me a Klotz scented candle.  Lucille not included.

Hypertension!

New batteries for the cordless tools 

Truck stuff 

Disney plus

Time with the family

Apparently you aren't the only one, my wife made screaming like noises over my shoulder when she saw those.

Which ones are these? My knowledge of boots ends at the cool Georgia Boots that I wear for work, and I need to file them away for a gift idea for later

I got a watch!

Indy 169's and some risers for the deck on the left;

Brand: Taft 

Model: Jackboot

Design: Eden 

My fiancée was able to get them on their initial release. They sold out quickly. You shouldn't have an issue getting them now.

What I love about Taft boots is that they're handmade and high quality. Also, the company has amazing customer support and customer interaction. 

These are the other pairs:

Wife got new boots to replace the ones the dog chewed up. Kids got all manner of funky socks, headphones, styluses (stylii?) and Barbie dolls. I got a Jerry Garcia neck tie, some new cast iron, and an HO Scale polar express locomotive. 

Pics (of the locomotive, in any case)-

My folks got me a Milwaukee Fuel M12 3/8" Stubby impact and M12 rotary tool.

In-laws got me some UZI parts and metal working books.

I got this before Thanksgiving, but it's technically a Christmas gift. If you're not from Arkansas, these are probably a little odd, but I've wanted a concert Razorback for a long time. It's about 20" tall and 80 lbs.  I may repaint it, it came as pictured, I could do a better job on the paint and add some missing detail.

New seat for the bike and I finally got an adapter for my steering wheel.  Also some quiet time to do some wrenching.

I had a nardi on my 79 w123 and could not see the top part of my gauges. It feels so much better than the stock wheel that I didn't care.
