Every hobby I do I get addicted to until I am bored of it. I never quit the hobby, just don't go "balls out" so to speak.

Reefing is the latest in a very long list that has included;

Radio Controlled - started with cars, but quickly went to airplanes, boats, helicopters, and rock crawlers. Electric and nitro

Firearms - pistols, shotguns, long guns, assault rifles... Sold off most of them save a few of my favorites

Knives - have over 100

Flashlights - have over 50

Off roading - broke lots of stuff in mud

Motorcycles - current bike is Husqvarna 610 supermoto

Computers - custom built and modified cases. Made one that looked like a turbofan aircraft engine

Travel - Been all over the place. Love seeing new places and meeting new people

Formula One - Been to 6 races: Montreal (2), Indianapolis, Spa (Belgium), Monza (Italy), and Suzuka (Japan) - I am also an avid fan and have been following it religiously since 1991

There more, but these are the most recent.....

I wish I still had pictures of it! Sold it on hard forums 5 years ago and the pictures I took were on a hard drive that failed.

Nowadays I keep important stuff like that on a raided NAS that also gets backed up to another external drive

I've toyed with the idea of building my own acrylic case just for the hell of it, but I want to work with it.more first and get my joints looking better.

Always enjoyed fossil hunting and being a rockhound. My boy quite enjoys so it's good opportunity for a bit of fun education.
