***HOLIDAY GIFT PROJECT CONTEST THREAD***
Before we kick this off, I was enmoderated on this community a few months ago, and I haven't had to do a single bit of moderation in that time. Not a single user banned, not a single comment deleted. This community has been absolutely excellent to each other, and I sincerely thank each and every one of you for that.
Without further ado, let's have one of our community sidebar picture contests!
It's the holiday season, and I'm sure a few of us woodworkers have hand built some wooden gifts for our friends and loved ones. To enter the contest, please leave a comment on this post with a picture or two of your gift project along with a brief description. The project with the most community upvotes wins.
The prize will be your project displayed on the community sidebar until the next contest (where the New Yankee Workshop sign is at time of writing) and the choice of topic for the next season's contest.
Votes will be tallied on the evening of Dec 24.
Let's see the wonderful stuff y'all made!

I decided this Christmas might be a good opportunity to try something new while also using up a lot of scrap hardwood. So I tried my best to make cutting boards for everyone. I hope they'll hold up.
Quite nice! Cutting boards are classic gifts. How'd you do that garlic print? Laser?
Yes, I engraved it with a CO2-Laser, I always hate when I cut oranges that taste like onions so I marked one side
There is a tool I miss, a CO2 laser.
Well folks, it's Christmas Eve, and we do have a winner in @[email protected] with a batch of etched hardwood cutting boards! Congratulations Inquanto, The sidebar image is yours.
I'm thinking we'll do these quarterly, maybe one for every season, so what would you like the topic to be for the spring Project Contest?
