Dear Santee,
Sorry not sorry. It's gonna be dummy expensive to send the one cheap rear end thing I wanted to send you so I'm gonna load this loving box up with as much other poo poo as I can to maximize the value/shipping cost.
I hope you're patient.

I got stuff pretty much ready to go, but now I'm faced with the dilemma: just loving ship it, or keep getting cheap stuff to throw in the box?

Hoping to get it out Saturday.

Dearest Santee,

I'm waiting on the last few items for my primary gift to arrive, and hoping to get it out Saturday/Sunday.
I will more than likely have to ship additional parts as i do not expect the pièce de résistance to arrive before the cutoff.

Warm Regards,
Santa Top.

Hey man, I hear you. poo poo's crazy.

Santee, the big part of your present just shipped to me. It needed... work... on my end before it could be completed. It should be here in a few days, then I'll need a bit of time to build, pack, and ship.

Hey santa! Did you also send me this giant Yamaha flag? My neighbor just dropped it off at my place, saying it had been delivered there. It's awesome! So thanks!

I was wondering about that!
I told amazon to package it all together :|
also there might be some really late newyears? carnage if i can get it into a flat rate box as I didn't have anything broken or neat on hand at the time

Tracking says my Santee’s package was delivered today. Open it please to make sure everything survived.

A couple small items said they wouldn’t arrive here for a few weeks but of course showed up the day after I shipped. They aren’t worthy of more than a small update so enjoy the package you have as a standalone.

Getting ghosted by an ebay seller ( surprise), my package is ready to ship but for that, however, mid-next week is the probable ship date.

Edit: heard from the seller, he's shipping today, so hopefully I'll ship by wednesday.

Both packages are now in the hands of Canada Post.

One of my santees should also have received their local merchant gift based on the tracking.

Edit: Confirmed that both local merchant packages have been delivered.

And my santa went way overboard.

Look at this!

A Texas License Plate!

An LS Fest T-Shirt!

Wait, is that some kind of boozy cherry jar? Oh yeah, I think it is.

AND by god Texas Salsa!

And Coozies!

And there it is, my 10mm socket, I was wondering where that went!

And a super wide range of deep impact sockets, up to 32mm... Awesome!

But the kicker is the Japanese garden with car edition. So, I did the only reasonable thing... spread the sand and had the car do a burnout in the garden, as god intended.

Lookit all this:



No note, so the santa remains a mystery, but thank you, goon, you went over and above and this was fun. Next up, I'll send something to my santee!

Glad it all arrived intact! Sorry again about lack of note and dicks. You said you wanted peace on your app thingie, so I figured a Zencalade garden would be a good idea.

Boozy cherries are from Antonellis cheese shop, made famous for their capital one card commercials or whatever.

Merry holidays!

First off, thanks Safety Dance!

Self-closing tweezers and hemostats arrived a week or so ago. Very good quality, much nicer than the usual cheap crap.

A box appears.
Baby Shark is intrigued. Ernie cameo.
Zoom->Enhance, yup. A wild present has arrived.

This is mine?

This is mine. Threaded wooden toys for the little one. Maybe they'll distract him long enough for me to go through the rest.

A bounty! I actually needed a set of flat pedals for my bike, now that I've got a riding partner. I tossed my old cleats, but only have clipless pedals. One Grip, plus a couple of bar end plugs and a spare 29" tube.
hosed oil pan plug, with greasy shop towel
1911 double mag holster, which will go to a 1911-iac shooting buddy
Weird scandi salt licorice, which is a very acquired taste. I can handle one or two, but it's a bit much. However, I've got a German friend who will kill the whole bag.
Tasty treats from a bakery in Port Townsend, WA (which I've been to before)
Bourbon bears (yum)
Apple/Apricot/Walnut candies
Nuts. Baby shark seems to be reaching for them.

A note. Limpdick for emphasis.
Baby shark has taken one jar of nuts.

Contents of note.
Baby shark has taken the other container of nuts.

Nuts>toys

Once I opened the box, he loved them!

I'm glad you can use the pedals! I smacked my shins one too many times on the studs and switched to plastic. I'm also really happy Baby Shark likes the toys. My kiddo is 10 months old and he's a little young for them yet, but I know I'm going to be buying him the same thing in a year or so.

Wow guys, toplitzin sent me not one or two but 3 packages, all wrapped in wrapping paper that the wife loved.

This is incredible, look at all this


A very nice note and included stickers. The note indicated yet another gift would be arriving from Kickstarter!


A collection of hot wheels which are immediately going in my collection, love some of these, especially the jag, 850 wagon and the van


Snacks!



Booze and jams. I'm already preparing to get a membership to this whiskey place


A large collection of zip ties and some sort of fancy tool to go along with it. Gonna have to figure out what it's for...


And the pièce de résistance


Glare not intentional.

Thanks so much dude! This is an amazing haul and is definitely the best gift I'm going to receive all year! Merry Whatever!

Glad it all arrived unexploded!

The zip tie gun is a tool I never knew I needed until I had it. I bought mine on a lark at Home Depot one trip and have never looked back!

I really hope the last piece ships to me and I can get it to you before/for xmas, but you know how Kickstarter shipping can be.

Does anyone want to help me move 1850 straw bales?

A box arrived! The moment I opened it I was booted out the way for official inspection

First up a load of hot wheels and a mountain of sweets! I especially like the classic taxi that is everywhere outside. These were of course confiscated by the aforementioned inspection.



Maps and magazines. Now I know where I can hunt as the country roads take me home



A heap of retro games! Oddly enough this past week I've been thinking of getting a copy of Pokémon red due to this video so that's great timing

While he's distracted with the cars I can play

Or not

There was a game save and with Mew in the inventory too so I'm leaving that save alone until I can copy it across

Tiny snacks


What is "an rally"?


These little fuckers are GRIPPY. I almost torqued my finger off screwing around


Euro tools for Euro trash cars


I am fortunate to not own a Northstar but I have friends who do so maybe they will get this


And this definitely got the biggest grin of the day. I have been looking for this Hot Wheels for a while.

Holy poo poo, you got THREE of those? I ordered one, crazy jeff screwed up and I never looked inside the box, they're adjustable from 10-13mm, and they're all the same, so spread the love to your friends, they are addicting little wrenches!

And I was worried about the Hot Wheels, I figured you'd have already bought that one... glad I could help, enjoy!
