I collect silver souvenir spoons. I have over 700. I started five years ago after going to flea markets and antique fairs on Sundays. I work on Sundays now, so I haven't added to the collection in the last year.:laugh:

Before the wide spread use of the camera, people bought post cards and souvenirs when they traveled. One of the most popular was the silver souvenir spoon. Your grandparents probably have some.:wink:

I also collect Persian and Peruvian silver.:biggrin:

Toy airplanes; been doing it for 60+ years now, in every phase. Into for a long time, too expensive; designing and building stuff from wood, won't bother to re-post my wood roadster, but furniture and boats are part of it; good beer is a passion; and books, mostly on cars, aircraft. One can get buried in a good hobby, but I am convinced that my hobbies have lengthened my life considerably...

you think you could rebuild the rear end in my chevy? its runn 3.42, id like to bump to 3.73 :) It has brand new axle spider gears and main pin lol. I blew my right spider about 2 years ago lol. Needless to say it rattled around in there for about a month before I realized it so everything is all scarred up.

you're best off buying an auburn chunk. they're cheap and you won't pay labor to have your stock internals repaired. hopefully that junk rattling around in your diff casing hasn't damaged your bearings and/or ring/pinion.

i've seen some pretty bad screw-ups related to loose parts floating around.

Wow, that's impressive!! :clap::thumbsup:

The collection of *** solved *** RUBIK's cubes is equally impressive :bow: :bow: If I can do 2 sides, that's about the most I can do. I know, I should probably google it and try harder ...

some of my hobbies

- music (playing, listening to)
- photography, blogging / documenting by photo fun public events in the city I live in
- looking for odd stuff at flea markets and second hand stores (I usually just photograph the stuff that tells stories rather than buy it).
- traveling
- computers / electronic gadgets
- hiking

I think that's about it. Oh, and eating good stuff. :D
