What do You Collect?

[BarbH]

When I was younger had started collecting stamps, still have a bunch that my grandmother had saved and picked up for me tucked away somewhere.
Musical instruments, hammered dulcimer, guitar (which have never learned to play), mandolin, and 4 fiddles.
Books, I have two walls in one room that has bookselves on them completely full and still have more books that won't fit on the shelves

Skateboards, but more for wall art (if i'm not skating on them) not really "actively" collecting them. I used to collect a lot of stuff over the years. I've paired back I just ended up with to much stuff that meant nothing to me. Every year I like to audit all my stuff and try to get rid of anything I haven't "used" in the past year. I guess I'm also hanging onto some old Console systems but again I don't actively seek anymore. I should probably get rid of the ps1/ps2, and some of the ones I'll never use again. Some how I still manage to dig out the NES,Sega, and Atari a couple times a year just for the heck of it.

I'm a geek so most of my stuff is tech related. Still have all my console systems and games (although I don't have time to play anymore) a large stash of computer gear I haven't gotten rid of. 9 PCs and 1 server around in all. And then a rack of Cisco gear.

Guns, watches, and tattoo's

I can't believe there are no pics up yet. Well i'll get this show on the road.

First is one of my tattoo's i've been working on this one for a while. This is on my ribs from my armpit to waist. I've got about 12 hours on it so far with another 4-6 left.

I also collect guns. Here's a sample of my collection

Ruger AR15

Glock 17, Springfield XDM 45, Beretta M9 anniversary edition

Colt 1911 manufactured in 1919, and used in WWII by my grandfather. (My favorite of my collection)

1945 mosin nagant.

Walther P22

I've got a few more guns just don't have pictures of them.

Watches

I've had several more just don't have pics anymore.

I collect paper currency from around the world as well as old US bills. I also have an unexplainable obsession with watches and probably have about 40 at the moment.

You forgot about your collection of frag plugs and toe nail clippings

Speaking of which... Payment sent on those vintage pinky toe clippings from when you were a kid! Can you FedEx overnight them with heatpacks? They get brittle if they get cold and they'll lose their value if they're not in mint condition. :tongue:
