I've gotten pretty bad about hording metal. Aluminum, steel, brass, copper, etc. Cans, old wire, anything broken made of metal. I don't throw away used aluminum foil, it goes in with the aluminum cans. I also have boxes of circuit boards that I will eventually strip for gold, silver, and palladium.
Eventually I'll get it all up to the scrap metal place. Honest.

My husband hoards guitars and gear (preamps, compressors, etc) He buys super cheap on eBay. Literally hundreds of guitars. The majority of his guitars and gear don't even work. He got them because they were free or really cheap. Our entire basement is all his gear in dusty boxes. We have gear and guitars under our bed, in our closet, etc.
I don't entirely "get it" but it seems to make him happy. There are far worse things he could be spending his time and money on... So I got him a new bass guitar pedal for his birthday. I guess that makes me a hoarding enabler.

Oh yes, I do understand.
A man should have several 9/16s around. Several. And a 5/16ths and a 1/2.

Uhh actually I am a huge fan of Smokey. That guy could make anything work, and work fast. He was a genius at inventing the better fast parts. I might have a book of him. I would have to dig lol.
