Hmmm...  Well, I've sorta struggled with figuring out what I ought to call
myself.  Not too much different than others on the list, I suppose.
Problems:

  - Calling myself a user implies that I spend a lot more time in the shop
than I do.

  - Calling myself a collector implies that I'm a lot more consistent and
methodical than I am.

Best I've been able to come up with so far is "accumulator."

Chuck Myers, suspecting, based on what happens in his shop, that tools have
developed the capacity to procreate
