Other Hobbies/Areas of Expertise

[Pav]

As the title states, What are your other hobbies/areas of expertise? We are all here because we enjoy vaping, and for some it's more than the nic fix. Its a way of life! But surely there must be more to all of than vaping. For me its a few things: 1) Knives. From fixed to folders, Spydercos to Swamp Rats. Theres alway one in my pocket(or on my hip),and I'll gladly talk to you all day about em. 2) My MK1B AW11. Or in non enthusiast speak,1989 Toyota MR2. Its my track toy, money pit, and grocery getter. She sits stock-ish currently awaiting some warmer weather and parts. 3) Physical Hacking. My ethics > Your Security. Thats all I have to say about that. But that is my shortened list. But what about you guys?

Right now I'm playing Borderlands Presequel. I expect besides hanging out here I won't have time for anything else for the next few weeks

How is the Presequel? I havent had a chance to play it/ still completing all of Borderlands2.

It totally kicks ass. Like any Borderlands game, it takes a while for you to get use to the complicated variety of level up and gun improvement systems, but once you start getting the hang of it, it's totally addictive. I wasn't expecting it to be as massive as it is to tell you the truth. A lot of times third installments can be really lazy (not counting Jak 3), but this is huge, especially if you're like me and play through all the side missions. Like #2 it's relentless and merciless, so expect to die a few dozen times on the way.

Tight. I just hope the pc can run it.

 

[vaperature]

I'm using ps3. Besides that, when I get around to it, I write a book or two here or there but not sure I want to call that a hobby. ;<))

Closed my gun-smithing operation 5 years ago, still do some, as a hobby now, for friends. Just re-stocked a CZ rifle for a friend in French Walnut. My vision problems have gotten really bad, that will most likely be my last checkering job, took me 3 weeks to do what I used to do in 3 days.

 

[Nitrowolf72]

Used to be an avid rc car racer but my job no longer allows me time for that hobby so its on the back burner for now. Have several rc planes that I love to fly when I have time and just fixing to get into reloading ammo as a new hobby. My problem is to many expensive hobbies. Lol.

I like to paint miniature fantasy figurines. I used to paint and sell them on commission for extra cash, its been one of the things in the past that would keep me from falling into the deep end at times. Have stopped for a while, but now that I got some time, new glasses and away from the evil in my life, I think its time to get back into it. This time however, I believe I will sculpt the figures as well. Keep it Foggy!

I go to Scotland a lot. I consider that a hobby I love it there. It's a great place to explore and discover really nice hidden places to stay. I used to take a mountain bike with and backpack and camp all over but now I prefer bed & breakfasts and sometimes hostels or bothies. I make stuff too. I just built a corner sofa because it's so hard to get anything up two flights of winding stairs.

Been wanting to build a model railroad since I was like 5. My grandfather had a basement empire, and when you grow up around something like that, it's impossible to get it out of your system. I have a lot of cars/buildings/etc, but with 4 kids of my own, I just don't have the time/money/space right now to get a layout up and running. So, I just collect for now. One day, though. ONE DAY!!!

My other hobby is photography. It was a business for awhile, but that sucked all the fun out of it. I've scaled back my equipment and just do photos for myself now. Every once in awhile I'll do senior photos, but no more weddings. Never again. I don't need that kind of stress in my life. Here's one of my favorites:

 

[Dr3d]

I have a few additional addictions.

Motorcycles - officer in a MC (Vmax, Triumph Tiger and Moto Guzzi Ambassador).

Shooting & Reloading. Mostly 1911s, 22 rifles and a 460 Rowland Carbine.

I still do a little photography & photo editing. And I still do fishing & boating.

I pretty much keep the project que densely packed.

I love the responses so far. Esp. that old ford. Got a 1100 back home, two cyl. diesel.

I think my avatar gives it away.

My wife and I raise Quarter horses. We are involved in Racing, Rodeo, Showing. We are the leading Quarter horse breeder in Idaho for show horse the last two years.

I also enjoy building DIY audiophile speakers and plan to build my preamps and amps when I get to it. Love my stereo stuff.

And in warmer weather I like to ride my Harley, make some noise, turn some heads.

To say the least I am thoroughly impressed. It appears we could take over the world, if not come up with a damn fine plot to do so.
