It is entirely possible that I have a tool addiction and this Barracuda project is actually just an excuse to fulfill a need to acquire more tools! I could join a 12 step program to help me with this issue, but then I would need to go purchase a nice metal field notebook, some new mechanical .9 mm pencils, and a good Hydro Flask water bottle to take to the class....
