    We have a boat at each place--but he also has tools he doesn't use, good computer repair man,That's a hobby too.
    Has bow and arrows he used to use. Also 2 toy helicopters-1 for inside and i for outside.
    Garage is a mess as he is not an organizer and won't throw things away. Retired but always busy.
    I would like for him to do woodwork for a little job for me
    but really not his thing.

    My hubby's toy's are all his woodworking tools, all his auto tools, all his fix-it tools, plus all the large machines, engines and tool boxes that go with that manly stuff.

    Well after raising 7 kids and always working in an office, my DH has no hobby. He cleans, does laundry, takes out garbage, grocery shop but does not cook and is very happy just eating cereal 3 times a day. He loves to see the quilting projects I make and is always wanting to take me to a quilt store to see what's new. He has been retired for 3 years and I think he lives vacariously through my quilting......He is a keeper though

    My DH collects civil war insignia. He has been doing it for the past 40+ years. He goes into the woods with his metal detector and digs for them. When he does that it gives me time to do my hobby. YEAH!

    My husband builds model airplanes but not the plastic ones. He build a wooden ship that took him almost two years to do it and he said never again. He has a fishing boat and in the summer he golfs at least 2 times a week. We had to build a house with a 3 car garage so that he could buy the boat.
