Every time i buy a new tool i get a small rush of happiness but it is fleeting. Then shortly after i start looking for the next tool to buy. How do i overcome this? I really don't need any more tools at this point.
>>2971713Start buying pickups, trucks, tractors, machining equipment and other larger equipment? That's what I did...
Yeah the dopamine rollercoaster is common and can be found in aspects of consumerism.You're just gonna have to be a little down in the dumps for a while until your dopamine produce levels off again.
realize that you're the tool
>>2971714And then you have to open a machine museum.And then people start GIVING you machines, and you can hire people to help you repair and show other people the machines, and then after hours before you turn off the lights for the night you can bask in your thousands of machines and laugh at god
I found the happiness of actually building something with said tools to be more durable.
>>2971713stop it
>>2971713Build a machine shop the ability to produce anything you want is a soothing feeling when you’re in your underwear playing call of duty
>>2971713My problem is that i dont have space for any more tools :(
>>2971839use your tools to build more space to hold your tools.
>>2971772well i am a professional carpenter so i do use the tools pretty regularly
>>2971713Buying new stuff is always fun. Doesn't need to be tools. Toss some old crap in your place and buy new nicer ones. Thatll feel good
>>2971769I'm not quite to this point yet, but I have been given quite a bit of stuff over the years. I think most people are just glad it's not getting scrapped or re-sold...
>>2971875I want to make a giant jigsaw puzzle with pieces being around 6 inches to 3 inches square.How can I do this with a jigsaw, drill, and miter saw?
>>2971937>choose puzzle image>open in a design software>expand to desired size>apply jigsaw overlay>number all the pieces>print in sections>cut out pieces
>>2971938That soulless slop
>>2971939 soulless slop for a soulless /r/
>>2971713Can you help me buy some tools?
>>2971713Get a brother in law and lend him tools. You will always be in need of a new tool to buy then.
>Buys new tools just for the dopamine>Anon's advice is to start buying trucks instead.Fucking ameritards. Dumb fucking morons
>>2978253>Fucking ameritards. Dumb fucking moronsEveryone look and laugh at the little landlet that doesn't have a farm.
I buy a tool when I need it.
>>2978273I buy a tool when I need it, if it looks like it might make a certain task of part of my life easier, or if its a screaming deal.
>>2971713Make a project, make it simple (very simple), finish it. You'll notice that doing/finishing a project gives just as much dopamine as buying stuff.You'll still be buying stuff (for projects) but it's cheaper than buying stuff for dopamine.
I want to buy s milwaukee drill/impact set without any justification.
>>2978332>I want to buy s milwaukee drill/impact set without any justification.How can you possibly have no justification to buy a drill/impact set? That's a pretty fucking low bar to try to justify.
>>2978366Well, I have a Ryobi that works perfectly fine for all my applications and a plug in impact wrench that I use for car and moto shit
>>2971713i had the same problem. but then ai takeover made my paycheck so small i can't hoard anything anymore. so it's all better now!
