    my hobby is finding new hobbies

    Sounds a bit like me. I just retired in June and am busy setting up my workshop. The original intention was woodworking with a focus on boatbuilding. As I go, I realize that I’m actually headed more in the direction of hobby manufacturing: a variety of stuff in wood and metal with a side order of 3D printing. On top of rebooting my programming hobby of learning a new language every year from before I “sold out” to Visual Basic and Access.

      Bit away from retirement so color me jealous. I’ve always loved woodworking, but these current prices are wearing me out. Worked with a guy that funded his whole hobby with some simple hobby crafts. My kid is hard up on a 3D printer, and with prior years of CAD it may mysteriously appear in our house to the surprise of my spouse 😂
