Tools For Christmas?

 If you're a regular reader of this blog, I hope you received at least one tool for Christmas.  I suppose even a software tool would count.  So would a 3D printer, or just a hammer if it's a hammer you need.

 Santa brought me two things I needed/wanted, both PPE; a pair of MIG welding gloves to replace the ones I wore out, and a pair of leather welding spats to cover boots and lower pants legs.  I really need those when I'm welding at higher currents.  Sometimes the spatter seems as bad as stick. :)

 So those were welcome indeed.  Also welcome was a high grade (Tripp Lite), steel cased, isolated outlet, RFI filtered, surge arresting, outlet box.  ie; ISO-BAR 6.  These are very nice indeed, and it will go straight into the 3D printing lab/bench.

 And I got another present which I shant detail, because it's prurient and not suited for this blog.  So there.

 Merry Christmas, and new tool wishes to all of you.
