What are some of your other hobbies?

ridgleyart

My hobbies are all over the place, some last for years and some last a few months.

Did a little painting

Carved some antler

Made some musky baits

And played some guitar

Maybe one of these days I'll find one that sticks around forever. So, what kind of hobbies or projects do you find yourself doing?

    Played 'some' guitar? That's quite a collection!

    I'll send you my address when you're ready to give away an SG.

    It'd look good next to my ES 330!

    Once in awhile I make some pens.

    Painted some walleye lures.

    Dye and stabilize the wood for pens and knife scales.

    I make about 10 knives a year.

    Gregor, I hope that you might consider listing a few of your handmade items on the Gun Broker auctions.

    Do alot of wood working. Had a granite mfg. tenant move out on me unexpectantly (UG). Left the building in a real mess. I salvaged many finished pieces and ended up making hard maple table bases for the salvaged tops!

    I honestly don't know where my work ends and my hobbies begin. I own a small, specialized auto repair shop and a "hobby farm". Started doing improvements to the land many years back and have bought several pieces of heavy equipment. Some of my neighbors found out about my "toys" and now I have a bunch of ponds to dig out and fence lines to clear. Getting so much paying work lined up I'm running out of time for my projects.

    When spring get here and everyone starts planting I should be able to get back on my current project. I'm enlarging one of my ponds and adding an island to it. The pond will be a little over an acre in size and on the island I am going to build a cabin. That way I can say I have a vacation house on my own private island.😁

    This is my latest toy.

    Recently I've taken a huge love in camping, snowshoeing, riding bike (one I recently got back into) and trying spicy foods.

    Some of my old hobbies I still enjoy on occasion are video games, sampling craft beer, hiking, and watching motorsports.

    Hobbies I'd like to get back into more include fishing, hunting, and attending races in person (which includes photography as a by-product). I had quite a long streak of attending at least 1 Nascar or IndyCar race a year broken in 2019.

    I've been doing more fishing lately. I had forgot how much I enjoy it.

    I still get out to the local drag strips around here. Nothing fancy, just bracket racing my daily driver for fun.

    I was going to list some, but after seeing the level of talent displayed here, maybe I'll just shut up. Me? I'm lucky to find my butt with both hands, much less do something artistic.

    Beauty/talent is in the eye of the beholder. I'll never sell anything, but I enjoy it. Second one is the current project.

    Lots of talented hobbies for you folks. I enjoy things that get me outdoors, and that's about it. That also includes a multitude of hobbies I cannot afford.

    The list, in order of importance.

    Family

    Friends

    Hunting

    Fishing

    Traveling West, always West

    Camping

    Mountain Biking

    Hiking

    Did I mention traveling west???

    Guns and shooting make the list at #3. Love some long range shooting, some shotgunning (missing wild birds), and lots of bowhunting.

    I work on old chainsaws as a hobby.


    Raise cattle as nothing more than a worthless hobby.
