I'm into photography. I love getting out and photographing what we have before it's gone.

I'm into good coffee, single malt scotch, music, and sound production.

Had to dig finding this Picture ( Shown is picture of picture ) from the R/C 3 point hydro shown in post #85
This shot was it running fully aired out at a radar confirmed 72 mph !! just hanging on the prop with the skip skip ride attitude of hydroplanes.
* Hull is @ 32" long, 25.4cc gasoline engine screaming along at @ 18,000 rpm !!

The 6 lap one mile race with 5 other boats at the time netted me a National Fast Time Record of which Badge is affixed to pictures glass.
Damn those were good times and so much fun & challenging to get such performance & handling.

From metals to moulding to structures, I like to design and build things. Can’t do much of the big stuff anymore but I apply all fundamentals to smaller things-

The adarondack chairs were Xmas presents to my wife. I made 8 of these for her.

Metal detecting!!!! Beach hunting. Right now have 3 machines XP Deus 2, Minelab Sovereign Elite, Minelab Vanquish 540 and Minelab Manicore on order waiting for it to come in. The Gold I get I put towards the second hobby air rifles.
Right now on hold on all hobbies I just had my second heart attack on Jan 7 2023 so taking time to recover. Mean while driving my wife around from Cancer treatments.

Prayers for both of you.
Doc

You sir a real craftsman. The only thing I might be picky about is the weight of those chairs - at my age I might not be able to lift them! Haha.

Well... hobby or a torture device.

 

[pistolero]

Have my own Adopt-a-Highway program. Clean up a mile, or so, of main road outside of neighborhood, daily, by bicycle. This is my rig for carrying trash picker-upper. WMView attachment 323960

Good man! I use my single-speed bike to pick up litter on my street, except I bend over to pick it up. Can be awkward for my old body. I have a "picker-upper" gizmo, too, but I hadn't thought of using it with my bike...duh!

I hope you and your wife both recover fully and with speed! So you have any thoughts on the Excalibur II metal detector?
