Boom! Leman Russ Commander

What kind of activities could you see Orks doing for fun?
Some things I thought of are
-races
-pit fights
-drinking
-squiggoth rodeos (snakebites)
-Arm wresteling
-head butting compititions
-choppa throwing (like darts)
-yelling compititions
pretty much everything they would do would be a compitition  it's in their nature

On the other hand I heard that they actually have civilization and they have free market. They use teeth for money

Seems like that. In DoW you can actually hear an Ork when enemy unit is killed: "Don't touch that tuff, it's my tuff."

I think you pretty much covered what they like to do in the OP. I think every ork also likes to tinker with gubbinz to some extent, it's just the mechs are better at it. I think the models are supposed to show that they personalise their stuff to make it more shooty, killy, hitty or snazzy.

From without, the Imperium is assailed by alien monsters from the depths of space, nightmare death-machines and soulless daemons (as well as soulless death-machines and nightmare daemons, and the occasional soulless daemon in a nightmare death machine). |
