    Default Your hobbies

    It seems to me that you need to add a little frivolity here. What are your hobbies? Confess)) I like to fish in salt water and cook a little (according to my mood). What about you?

    My hobby is fishing. Last summer I went fishing and experienced a great danger. I didn't know how to catch a catfish. The catfish pierced my finger and I had a fever of about 102 degrees for two days. Since this is my hobby, I can not leave it.
    Afterward, I searched online for this issue and found nothing. Finally, I found an article written on this. I never thought i would find such an article on the internet, now i have a new hobby, And that is gathering such odd resources written on fishing.
    If any of you is interested in my finding you may check this article.

    Hello.

    I´m fan of cooking. I must say that I have my guinea pigs in two of my grandchildren. They appear to like some of my recipes more than the way their mother cooks them. What a better incentive than that.

    I remember an old webpage by the name COOKING FOR ENGINEERS. It had recipes like "CHICKEN A LA V8, COOK WHILE YOU DRIVE HOME", "TEMPERED STEAKS" were you where given directions on how to use an annealing furnace to cook stew.

    I should still have some of those recipes somewhere.

    We used to try some at the shop during our Saturday shift. Being in the middle of nowhere left us little choices than to either take some food with us or to cook our meals using electric grills.

    Given the temperatura and humidity of the zone where the shop and factories were located it was very common for our meals to get spoiled so we ended up trying some of those crazy recipes. It also gave us the bonus of helping us relax and get to know each other better.

    Later on the general manager forbade us from using the furnaces and authorized a small dining room and a kitchen but still we could manage to use the annealing furnace specially for some "charbroiled" meat.

    I really miss that time.

    Regards.

    My hobby is CNC, especially to make old CNC machines come to live again, that is so exciting and super satisfied.

    Bench modeling, first you build a model, it can be: a tank, an airplane, a ship or a car. Then the airbrushing of the model is just a thrill! the model becomes voluminous and looks like a real one.

    I love to play chess online, although I could not win. I also had to play in an online casino, I would not say that I am a gambler, I just sometimes like to tickle my nerves.

    I'm a retired engineering person.....that is, I've been in many fields of engineering but now I spend most of my time re-organising my garage workshop to make more room for things I want to make, but every time I go out there to make more room I just seem to move stuff around.

    My latest hobby is building a 3018 mini router from the ground up to make it perform miracles as opposed to just scratching on wood etc........in effect it's a big boy's Meccano set as it's constructed from bolt together extrusions etc but has potential if done correctly.

    Now, after 40 years of sitting in a corner gathering dust, I've just rebuilt a small jig borer to make it perform as a manual mill......it basically is a vertical mill but had a 2 Morse spindle so that was one reason it never got into action........now it has a spindle with an ER32 chuck on the end as I only use it for small work and all my plug in tools for it are now 20mm straight shank.

    That means I can use all the cutters straight in collets in the spindle and with a 20mm straight shank for other tools like drill chucks, boring head and a slitting saw arbor.

    One problem I encountered and that was it had a quill, so I kept that for drilling only and now use the main head casting for the Z axis move........it needs to be re-engineered to get a DRO on it as the dials are all Imperial.

    I already have a CNC mill so I don't need a second one.

    My main hobby is keeping my 1926 Aveling and Porter Steam Roller on the road!! Not much CNC used to build this old girl, just good old fashioned Victorian engineering that is as good today as it was 96 years ago.

    I like programming, but only silly or whimsical programs. The second I sit down to make something "practical" I lose all interest.
