I clicked on photography and music.

Whilst I like doing these things, I also like making the equipment.  I have already posted a picture of a guitar I made in another thread so here is a web page describing a 6x12 panoramic camera I built a while ago:

I am also making a 5x4 (4x5 for you Americans) folding view camera from mahogany and brass which is nearly finished but I don't seem to be able to access my Flickr account from work so I will post some pictures when I get home.

EDIT: Found some!!





I also seem to have become a collector as I now have 72 film cameras!


Steve.

Flying is my favorite hobby, below is me gassing up the Cessna 210T.

It wasn't an option but I sure enjoy spending time with my Son, Granddaughter and Daughter in law.

That's a chromatic, not a diatonic...neither is it a burrito.

Diatonic burritos... sounds gassy.

Chromatic burritos?  Not so sure about those, either.  /nudge, wink

I enjoy scuba. There's a profound sensation of silence despite the sound of the gear and underwater noises that really chills me out.   

It's expensive and carries risk of ear trauma, so it was right up my alley.


Best I could do with google image search, sorry Dick.

My hobbies....performing music.  Mostly acoustic driven stuff at the moment.  Playing music is what got me the job behind the console.

Mountaineering - I don't do it much but love the challenge.  Being a Survival Specialist in the AirForce in my past life allowed me to do all the adventurous stuff, but now I have a son and took a promotion to something a little less on the wild side.  Pic is of one of my climbs up Rainier.

Motorcycles - I have 3, a 14 Harley Streetglide Special, 07 Harley Nighttrain, and a mid 70s VW Trike that was built in my family, I have been working it to restore it completely to its past beauty.  Head to Sturgis every year, and I find other than playing music its the only thing that actually slows my thinking down.

Didn't see farming in the list.

There's a saying among farmers: "If I win the lottery, I'm just gonna keep farming until the money is all gone."

With Jerome.

I'm getting more and more into motorcycles. Got rid of the woman, she wouldn't let me get a motorcycle. First thing I do after going to Vegas? Buy a motorcycle.

Two years later I bought a second one. Now I'm on the lookout for a 3rd. I'd love to get an Enduro/Dual Sport and spend some time in the mud learning to ride.

Other hobby is Pool. There is something that I enjoy about the skill and math involved, along with the wonderful people in the leagues around my area. Regardless of skill level, They're awesome to play against. and after the game will discuss their mistakes, and what I could have done to play better. Usually something defensive, which I have found is the hardest part of playing pool.

Outside of hanging with my lovely wife flying RC planes is my thing for downtime. This one is my fave, FMS 1400mm BF-109.



Blogged about it a while ago:

http://splnetwork.com/blogs/downtime-what-do-07252013

I also spend time working on and driving my '74 Datsun 260Z:



And finally, when I have time to actually rehearse and book a show I play keys in a Depeche Mode tribute band called Violator. Lots of fun!
