Anyone started a new Hobby???

As the title asks about new hobbies. I took up building guitars from kits.

Ordered a kit from fretwire that you have to finish and build then wire it up.

Anyone else start a new hobby??

I revived an old "hobby"; bicycle riding. I used to ride years ago and had bought a top of the line bike in 1975, a Raleigh International with Reynolds 531 double-butted tubing and Campagnolo components. I completely tore it down this winter, repacked all bearings, and cleaned it like it had never been cleaned before. I have been out on a rails to trails path a couple times and it feels good.

I also have my other two hobbies, cabinet making and managing my little 8 acre forest. I just retired last August so I am still acclimating to this new life.

Good for you Doug! I maintain our little 5 acre grove and a small 11 acre farm it keeps me busy enough to never get bored..
I make a list of the things I have to do, it helps a lot, and better when I scratch them off!

I started making various knives from scrap steel I have laying around. First few are pretty rough but they are getting better. Got some new equipment coming which should make them lots easier to build and prettier (hopefully). After a few more, I am going to order some special material, maybe 1085W to make them with.

Yes, it is called cleaning out the garage to make space for a CNC plasma table. Anybody who has seen my YouTube videos has noticed the problem.
