That means the holidays are very close. Maybe not as close as the kids (or the young at heart) would like, but we getting close to the ever dreaded shipping deadlines. If your holiday gift giving list is as long as mine, well, you are going to have to plan in some time to get them all built!
So, in this week’s poll, what’s the current status of building your holiday gifts? Are you done, or have you even started?
