Whats your knife making Christmas wish list?

A control valve and 16 GPM splitter pump to continue building my hydraulic press.
A 24" Paragon.
Surface grinder.
That $1200 metal lathe with a 6' bed and two boxes of tooling from the local classifieds.
One more commercial fluorescent lighting fixture for the forge area.
 
The Atlas Mini Forge is at the top of my list. After that a 12" flat disc.
 
drill press, water jet cutter, bigger vise, forge, anvil, just about everything that i do not have :)
 
Not that I'm going to get them: T Wurtz surface grinder for KMG, Drill Doctor 500X, better drill press.
 
Dan, I have a Drill Doctor, the biggest one 750X I think and I am sadly disappointed with it. It's often hit and miss and even with my non-existent grinding skills I can usually do a better job by hand.
 
Stuff I'll probably get: New bench/tables for the shop

Stuff I dream about getting, but will be a long way off:

surface grinder, hardness tester, milling machine
 
Power hammer, rolling mill, surface grinder, TW 90, salt pots, small CNC mill, bigger shop to put them in..........nothing major.:D
 
I asked for supplies and a few small tools... a big box came in the mail yesterday that was addressed to me from USAknifemaker... but my mom quickly snagged it and told me the bill for that order was being paid and I had to wait a couple weeks to open it :D
 
I've ask for a level granite slab, and some books on milling machines so I can figure out what to do with the one I got off of Carig's list and a few other things. I know two boxes showed up from Grizzly two days ago and my wife quickly grabbed them and hid them some place.
 
2 x 72 belts, more steel from Aldo, really just the basic supplies would be nice. I will probably get socks and shirts.
