Other Money Pits / Hobbies

  • Some more of my hobbies/money pits.


    This is before I sold both the VN2000 and the Gold Wing.



    Loved both of those bikes. Miss ‘em.


    My other hobby is wood turning. I make custom writing implements and wooden bowls. Two of my favorite pieces are a pen turned from a piece of Horse Chestnut which was planted by Geo Washington. The other is Teak from the handrail of the Andria Doria.



    Both were scary to turn. If you make a mistake there are no replacement blanks.

  • I am learning that my hobbies/money pits are not quite the same as everyone else here. I also realize that I am in a completely different income bracket as some after seeing this thread lol.

    Does that mean you are like me you owe money at the year end to the Government. :00008172:

    I'm there with you. I have tastes that are beyond my financial reaches for things I'd like to have or do. But.... I have some nice things and I'm content and enjoy using all of them. Well, I'd enjoy them more if Winter would finally leave here and stay gone....

    I confess, we have caviar tastes on a potato chip budget. But, we can make nickels and dimes go a long way.
