Nice, I was thinking about growing some myself. What zone do you live in? Do you have a trellis to support them.
My other hobbies include photography, Amateur radio, metal working machine shop, knife making. Seems like I can't get a inexpensive one like tree leaf collecting!
Just a side-line firearm hobby is collecting old obsolete - to current different brand gun and ammo makers belt buckles, made of silver, brass, bronze etc. all metals (no plastics 😀) they're placed/grouped inside glass cushioned display cases and hang on the wall. Find them a yard sales, estate sales, antique stores, gun shows etc. Each gun maker has several types with different markings so finding a different one is a thrill...........a whole lot cheaper than the firearms themselves and the thrill of finding one is almost the same.

Right guys. Too much weight could damage the safe. My thought would put in enough gold where is seems to be a safe amount (no pun intended) and offer the remainder as a give-away to your GB pals.
I started collecting ammo when I was 8 years old. I don't know how many different cartridges I have, but it is in the hundreds. Some are fairly valuable to a knowledgeable person, but if anything should happen to me my family would probably sell them by the pound.

I am currently running the numbers to see the maximum weight of gold bars it will hold before sinking to the bottom of the pond.
After seeing all these I guess I won't mention my collection of 14 different bottlecaps.
have another beer and make it 15...........

I restored old Gerstner machinist boxes for about 10 years but father time has taken a toll on me. You guys are amaizing.
Same here!
