A retirement gift for my friend Steve

What do you give to a retired guy who buys everything he needs and his wife and daughter characterize as a minimalist? Any hobbies I had thought of, got shot down when I talked with him, so........... one of my new series of platters I'm making was the ticket. It's about 15" round.
$350
