Lewdog Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 So I need to find something new to collect. I'm looking for ideas of something cool looking yet relevant. I'd also prefer it to be a bit unique. I was thinking of doing the classic radiator caps off old Model T's and such. Also doing old hood ornaments. So what's your ideas?

Lewdog Posted February 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 I used to be a huge sports card collector, sports memorabilia collector, and comic book collector. I was to do something more adult and unique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewdog Posted February 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 If anyone is interested, here is a ticket stub to Super Bowl 16. I bid on it but I can't go much higher. It's actually for 2 tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewdog Posted February 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 No I'm not making fun of you. To be honest I found a wooden display case at the local vendors mall today for $4 and I couldn't pass it up, and it gave me an idea that I need to start collecting something again. I don't want to collect cards or anything anymore so I had to find something else. In the opening of the thread I gave a few ideas I was thinking of. I also though about collecting geodes. I think I have settled on collecting these though. If you have any doubles you want to get rid of hook a brother up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mother sells those on Ebay and actually does pretty good with it. She's retired and it gives her something to do and they're plentiful around here. She's even had people from overseas buy them and pay a shitload of coin for shipping. I have been tossing around the idea of starting to collect something or just start a hobby, something to occupy what little spare time I have besides drinking beer lol. Thinking about maybe getting into photography. I even looked into soapmaking lol. Could be a hobby that I could even make a little supplemental income from.

Enon Bengal Posted February 2, 2012 Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 I collect Morgan silver dollars, it can be expensive though, but I love 'em. I'm starting to kick around the idea of keeping bees, maybe when I get a little older and a little closer to retirement. I have to check out the local zoning laws.

Jamie_B Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 After seeing what some of the original star wars figures in the box are worth I bought almost every episode one figure and have them still in boxes stored away.

Hayden Christianson got bashed for his acting (he's actually a pretty good actor if you see him in other stuff) when in truth, most just couldn't accept that anakin wasn't always the badass vader. He was a whiny punk teennager with emotions out of control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
