Collectors anyone ?

I collect Indian Artifacts. One of my favorite things to do, because it involves no money, I just go out and walk the farm fields after they have beened worked. I have over thousands of spears, axes, pottery, etc. I also have my fair shair of sports cards from when I was younger, much to my suprise some are worth a fine chunk of change nowdays. Lately I've gotten into antique furniture, buying it at auctions, stripping it down and selling it. Its amazing some of the stuff that is worth a lot of money but nobody wants it because its either been painted over or may have a broken piece or two that easily repaired. Guns is another one of my hobbies but have slowed down because its to expensive and with a family its hard to find the extra money lying around to buy them anymore, but I have 68 so I dont think I need anymore.

I used to for about 3 months ,then I returned the detector for a 3-ton jack ,a pair of axles stands, and de-coder.

Now, it's a Much better operation around here.

I collect die cast construction equipment, mainly, though sometimes when I look around the house and realize its time for a sale. The one thing I would like to do is restore my fathers 1946 Farmall 100, and our old 1945 John Deere farm tractor. Anything tractor or farm equipment catches me eyes, my son is the same way.

I was at Wal-Mart and found some JOHN DEERE Sheets and Pillow cases today.:-X12

Ah Yes, Runs like a Deere and Smells like a John.

Because of the Original green and yellow pin-striping on my truck ,people have thought i worked for John Deere.

I collect old hammers. Also pipe wrenches and unchromed cresent wrenches. My son says I like rusty junk!

I have a collection of toy trains, Lionel and LGB. I also have a nice collection of old 'Lindsey' Matchbox cars and trucks.

I also collect old books and western and civil war artifacts.

My wife collects figurines. Currently, she seems to be collecting antique furniture, with no place to put it all!
