        I find it creepy.  He goes to great lengths to put a fake story behind
his cabinets that are to "hold a variety of interesting tools from his
collection”.  If he was making these things to display in his own home, that
would be one thing, but to display them at events, and hint he would sell them
for big cash, is dishonest.
