I collect cd's and records. I currently have around 3500 cd's.
For records, I stick almost exclusively to lp's, but I do have a stash of 45's. I currently have around 1200 pieces of vinyl.
I also collect music in general. I have cassettes, 8 track tapes and electronic formats like mp3's.
I also collect turntables. This collection is small, as I only keep decent ones. The lower end ones, I move out to other people who express interest in vinyl but have no turntable.
I also collect vintage stereo equipment. Amps, receivers, cassette decks, tuners, whatever. Have a couple of systems.
I also collect vintage cowboy boots. Don't have a ton of these, but I am working on it.
I also collect Adidas shoes. Have around 40 pairs and am always looking for more.
I collect vintage mechanics tools. I started with the brands I found in my grandfathers tool box that I inherited after he passed away. Indestro and Duro Chrome, with some Powr Kraft, Barcalo, Plomb and SK thrown in for fun.
I sort of collect vintage paperback books, mostly sci fi but also James Bond and hardboiled detective stuff too.
I collect pipes. Have around 30 so far. Mostly go for older GBD pipes in classic shapes, but have Comoy, Dunhill, Peterson and others.
I collect tinned pipe tobacco too. Have around a hundred tins in my cellar.
Would collect guns if I could afford them. Have a small collection of mostly in use pieces. Have my great grandfathers Model 97 Winchester shotgun. Made in 1904. Still hunt with it each grouse season. Also have a Nazi stamped Walther P38 made in 1943 in Czechoslowakia. Grandpa got if off of a dead German in WWII. He refused to go into details of how the German ended up dead.
That is pretty much all that I collect, though I am always looking for something new to hoard.
