Are You A Collector?

Do you have a collection of anything. Old gas station signs, bar mugs, oil cans, etc., or maybe just a hoarder.

I have a baseball cap collection, over 300 caps. I haven't really been collecting now for a number of years, but still have the caps. If someone was an avid cap collector, I would be willing to sell them.

What do you collect?

Tools. Mostly new, and usually expensive, but would pick up good used ones if they came my way.

I really do have a hard time passing up the latest gadget, especially if it will be used.

Bicycles. They just follow me home.:rolleyes: We have 12 of them, four of them are my wife's. (And I'm not even counting the grand kid's bikes). Different bikes for different uses. (Just like snowmobiles, just more affordable). Our basement looks like a used bike shop. Though I confess its time to thin the herd down to six. We haven't ridden the tandem, mtbs or the vintage bikes in a few years. I just know when I sell them Ill regret it though.:) I really want a recumbent trike. My wife says if I get another bike, she gets another dog.:mad:

I collect rocks. Specifically U.P. rocks. I have collected them from Ontanogon to Drummond Island, the Keweenaw to Sault St. Marie, Escanaba to St. Ignace. They sit in various gardens in my yard. I always said if I couldn't live up there at least I could bring a little of it back with me.

I always start collecting something, don't have the room for it, then move on to something else LOL

Shot glasses, everywhere I go, or everywhere the wife goes we pick up a shot glass. probably have 40 or 50 of them right now on a ledge in the basement. Cheap and small but hard to keep clean!

Wheels and casters, it is an obsession. Can not watch a lawnmower
or chair go in the dumpster with the wheels still on.

For decades I have been collecting precious metals, mostly brass and lead, with some forged steel thrown in just for good measure.
