If Man made something
Other collect it. I have an old Craftsman Ratchet, belonged to my dad. I took it aprt, cleaned it's innards, put it back together. Pawls show wear, but it still functions well.
Known as a "BE" series. Wanting to learn more, searched youtube. Watching, I learned that my dad paid around $2.50 for it, back sometime between 1939 and 1946. Not worth much, but it now sits in the back of my 3/8" drivee drawer...nostalgia.
Anyway, is collecting a hobby or a disease? You be the judge...
