Curious what else you are all in to...

I do saltwater aquariums and motorcycles.

I have seen some of your posts on Reef2Reef.

Jealous of all the cool stuff people here have hobbies of.

Nice to see other car owners. Also was a fox body guy. My 93 Gt was featured in Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords in 03 and 5.0 Mustangs and Super Fords in 02. It was also used in some advertising ads. We had an 89 LX hatch and the silver 90 LX Hatch Shelby. Had a 03 Redfire Terminator and now a 12 GT500 with a VMP 2.3 blower.

The main hobby I’m in now is Pinball. I wonder how many of the younger crowd has seen them. We also love cats. Karolina is a pure bred Siberian.

I crash cars, play guitars, and try to keep these fools from destroying my house lol.

Christmas Tree Topper I turned on the wood lathe. A process called "Inside/Out" wood turning.

Working on a new blade in the shop for this winter. Thinking about the heat treat process & if I should pull the trigger on an oven, so I don't have to send out for that part of the process. I'm still just doing "stock removal" with my grinder (relatively new to this stuff), no forging at this point, so a propane forge would be cheaper, but temperature control is better with a real oven & proper temp settings, hmmm. Here's the grinder, single speed, 1 hp, some bought some parts, made the rest. The frame is made from 2 1/2" & 2" receiver hitch-tube material, so the tool rest & roller read can slide for adjustments.

Here's the new blade, a bunch of things "wrong" on this one I don't really like, but I'll refine the pattern for the next version & make a few changes to do a better blade. Still enjoy working with my hands, lucky to have the time & a place to work & the ability to see it & make it. This one is 0.21" thick 5160 steel (basically it's a leaf spring material, tough & relatively hard when done correctly), it's just under 12" long & 1 1/4" at its widest point. Will have black canvas micarta for the grip with stainless steel pins & epoxy to fasten it together. Will post once I have it finished & will post the "new one" which will be an improved design. Similar to a Japanese Kiwaken knife.

New profile, slight changes...

Hoping to get back out on my Sasquatch in the new year... also brought home a little something yesterday that will hopefully get my daughter hooked on bikes when she’s big enough to ride!

Just a portion of my 1/18 scale collection hanging from the ceiling of my man vault...I'll let you imagine what's on the other 4 walls

Nice collection there Sid. I think I can guess what the other walls look like. I have a friend who turned his garage into his man cave and he has a collection of remote and gas powered planes hanging from his ceiling. It's a really cool hobby and I've been out with him a few times flying.

I hope to ride my fat bike soon too...lost traction on the rear tire on a wet wooden bridge a little over a week ago and ended up spraining my ankle pretty bad. I’ll be on the sidelines for a while. Set up a Minion FBR tubeless tonight for a more aggressive rear tire which should help in the future. Can’t ever go wrong with a Minion.

Hope your kid’s hooked on riding soon!

Remember... Barbie drives a Jeep... Real Men drive Rangers!

Can't a "Real Man" do both?
