Do we just guess what that hobby is?
I don’t mean this to come across as rude, but why would you make this comment and not mention the hobby; without it the comment is pretty useless.
i dink around with welding. clear?
Crystal.
I could have guessed until the end of time and welding probably wouldn’t have been a guess.
That’s a cool hobby. I know if I had a welder I wouldn’t be able to just not weld random things.
its a serious addiction. very hard to leave it alone sometimes.
As long as it’s not detrimental to other areas of your life, I don’t see that as a bad thing.
a few blisters is a small price to pay for the satisfaction

~~hobby~~ family
Gunpla gives me great joy, until I look at my bank account.
We are not a waste of money!
I do some cross stitching and it hasn't been bad. Even using kits instead of doing custom ones. I've got like $120 CAD worth of large kits and, at the rate I'm going, they'll probably last me a decade or maybe my daughter will inherit some of them.
I'm well into year 2 of working on the current one.
Relevant af... Been flirting with the idea of finally buying pro DJ gear after like 16 years of being a DJ. Have done a jillion weddings, and a healthy dose of misc functions from corporate shindigs, galas, house parties, bars, etc...
Have limped along so far by borrowing gear whenever I had a proper gig (plenty of friends in the scene) but now I have some fun money budget. The spicy pro gear is soooo stupidly expensive but about time I had real gear off my own. The cereal box bedroom toy deck only gets you so far.
