Forget about the argyle socks, skip the silly fish tie, give him
a gift that will have him grinning from ear to ear. I put together
a list of my favorites... gifts every woodworker will truly cherish.
I’ve grouped them into four simple categories to help you shop and
indicated my top pick in each category. These gifts will work for
any occasion… Christmas, Father’s Day, birthday or just for the
heck of it.
