I guess i am lucky my wife bought me a center tool box for Christmas to put on my nightstand. She told me i could put my cute little red knifes in it as well as my other toys.

Well just after I typed that up, I got to some deep thinking. As you know, my space was getting limited. I wanted to buy another unit the same as I have and place them next to each other. Well, trying to figure out a space for both units has been very challenging. This morning, it came to me. I moved my first cabinet out of the bedroom and placed it where I kept the collection. Then I moved the collection to the bedroom. I figured I have enough space for another unit now...which I bought at Sears today. However, they didn't have any in stock and so I should be getting the expansion set on the 30th. Now get this, I had to pay for it or they would not have ordered it for me. I argued with them that this was a big box store, and I should not have to pay for an item that should be in stock. They told me it was like buying online. I told them that when I do that, I get it delivered to my door. We argued for a good 4 minutes over my having to finance their store etc...but they had me over a barrel. I did tear the whole city apart for the best tool cabinet and chest for my needs, and I wanted another one...so I paid in the end. Stuff like that only reinforces why I don't go to Sears often.

Still in the process of moving things around. Man oh man what a PIta!

So, now the collection resides in the bedroom.

Solution:  Get rid of the boat; fill void with collection.

Or,

Solution 2:  Use boat as giant cabinet for storing collection.

Looks great Allan! I like the toolbox, but I like the glass display case even more You need to put up a few of those Leatherman decals on the glass to really set it off!


Oh, and how about getting that spinner display up and running too!

Thanks, I'll look into that. Sadly the display is not a spinner.

Where do you guys get the time and money to start having a "storage problem"? How long have you guys been collecting? Its taken me 4 years to have 4 leatherman tools.  What are some tips and tricks?

Buy used is a tip I use, and trade.

Thats how I got the tool I have now.  Bought skeletool for $20.  Traded for a wave.  Found an old broken wave at work.  tried to fix it.  Sent it to leatherman now its as good as new. Bought a core full price but traded it for a surge.  Bought a juice cs4 online for $30. 

I am just amazed at teh collection some of you guys have.  It blows my mind.  Congrats.

Great collection  you got there.
