I think this might count. I paint fantasy miniatures that we use for D&D. I don't have any pics of those I don't take lots of pics of much.
I also do the cooking at my house. I've taken enough of an interest to try new things and techniques. It's necessary to feed us, but I've made a hobby out of doing it well.  Attached File |

I used to have fun cars and motorcycles before I was married, now i'm done with child support I want another motorcycle.
But for the last few years its mainly repairing and restoring vintage computers. 1986 Compaq Deskpro 8086 upgraded with a NOS 286 motherboard. I've had it for over 30 years and still have all the original manuals and software.  1981 Osborne 1, mint condition. Added a Gotek floppy emulator and replaced the sticking membrane keyboard guts with a mechanical one from a parts Osborne.   1982 Osborne 1A also mint condition and works great, I have the original box and ALL software and paperwork.     NOS 1986 Kaypro 1, it was literally brand new when I got it last year, not a single mark or scratch on it and only needed to swap out three Rifa caps. Really in spectacular shape.     EDIT: I also build all my pc's.  |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Looks like they take factory blades. That's too cool. Penn State sells the Mach 3 fitting and normally a wood handle would be turned. I turned the damascus to work with the kit. I plan on making up some mokume twist and doing a few razors with it. Using mokume will eliminate any rust problems. |

Jeeps/cars was one them but after getting married and having kids that’s fallen by the wayside in favor of rifle/hunting/shooting
I like to assemble unique AR/rifle builds optimized for specific purposes. So pretty mundane for Arfcom. My latest one is a 7mm SAUM built on a Mega MA-10 upper. It’s a mix of semi custom part and off the shelf standard parts. I had a specific set of specs outlined around achieving the most performance possible out of an 18” large frame AR. And reloading and some wood working |

Quote HistoryQuoted: What armies do you have? Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: I paint little 1-3" high action figures and move them around a table by myself because no one wants to play with me. Kharn You need crabmeat. I can't afford crab meat, I've fallen down into the Games Workshop hole and started buying their stuff again.

I'd managed to avoid their products for ~25 years but Necromunda is just too damn good. Kharn @Matt_The_Hokie For GW, I played Ultramarines and Delaque (with a bit of Battlefleet Gothic and Blood Bowl, but not enough to consider myself interested in them) back in the day, now I'm swearing to stick to only Necro. I have Ash Wastes and Hive Secundus boxes so Orlock, Nomads, Van Saar, and Malstrain are in my pile of shame and a bunch of rule books. I can't decide which gang I want to stick with in the current edition. I may also end up picking up the new edition of Kill Team to try out the AI rules and see if I can adapt them to Necro. My Fallout (Fallout Wasteland Warfare and Fallout Factions) pile of shame is gigantic, I have stuff from every faction except for Enclave and Legion. Mainly Survivors. Wasteland Warfare has great AI rules for solo play. My Turnip 28 project is dying on the vine despite really loving the idea, just can't find anyone to play with. I also have a bunch of Marvel United, not a tabletop wargame but it has a ton of minis and my kids understand it and they like to play on occasion (one of the few games I've found with female characters they can relate to). I only do FDM printing at the moment, I need to get an SLA printer in a suitably safe setup, and finish my basement including a proper 4x6' gateleg gaming table so I'm not stuck playing on a wobbly card table among 1970s paneling. But I'm subscribed to 4-5 different Tribes/Patreons for models for when I do get that SLA printer running. Kharn |

Assembling ARs from parts - a not-so-inexpensive
 Attached FileThe picture above is a combination of my other hobbies, which include very amateur photography, graphic editing and website developing - from an offline website I created on my computers at home. Each of the pictures above links to a page about that gun and many detail pictures of it including me and friends shooting it at the range. In fact I have a page like that for every one of my 250+ guns. Writing those pages in Windows Notepad is something I intend to keep doing to keep my mind active as I get older, especially after seeing how my dad has declined since his retirement. |
