Please no doomer responses.

I’ve been playing my guitar a fair bit. Relearning the solo dem another brick in the wall pt 2 because I never learned it right whe I was in high school and really wanna get that 5 fret bend down right. Havent learned a solo in a while, pretty easy reintro to solos.

Been getting my old anet 8 3d printer working again for a project for my girlfriend. Pretty fun iterativeprocess.

Also fucking around with retro games on an old pi I had sitting around. Contra hard corps is hella fun.

So what do you like doing? What have you been having fun with? What do you like?

    Getting my wood shop set back up after moving earlier this year. It’s really nice to be back to building things.

        Oh all sorts of stuff. Dog beds, shelves, a few side tables, record crates, display shelves, railings, etc. If it’s something I want, I typically try to build it.

          Wood-working is one of those hobbies that impresses me thoroughly to see others do. That’s really cool that you build stuff like that! I bet they look so much nicer than something from Ikea or whatever lol

            It depends on how much effort I’m willing to put into it 😅. It takes a lot of patience and a lot of ability to improvise around the inconsistency of wood as a building material lol. It loves to warp and crack.

            What’s your craft?

              Color me impressed! My dad would make stuff from wood here and there. Patience is definitely needed haha. I can almost hear him muttering under his breath at a snag in his work flow even now :)

              Oh I dabble in stuff - baking and cooking, playing violin, photography. I photographed weddings for a little over a decade. That’s probably my favorite craft that I’ve honed through the years.

                Respect for being able to handle wedding photography lol. I was a wedding DJ for a few years and people get crazy about their photography. That’s why I’ve always tried to stick to critters and plants for my photography. They don’t tend to care much for how they look.
