Edit: so it turns out that every hobby can be expensive if you do it long enough.

Also I love how you talk about your hobby as some addicts.

    I carve wood, so I was buying wood blanks to carve. Then my father in law said “oh, you use basswood, I’ve just cut down a whole bunch”, so he chainsaws some and mills it down to size and drops it off, but now my garage is full of basswood logs so I need to buy a new saw to rip it into smaller pieces to work with. But while I’m at the store a chisel set would be great for learning woodworking, and maybe a hand planer too since I don’t have space for power tools. I got a cope saw as a poor man’s bandsaw, for shaping, but now that I’m doing bigger pieces I could really use those Dremel tools…

    Free wood is so damn expensive!
