Alright, you are not going to get away with posting in this thread saying you have an enormous kite and not at least post a picture of it.
This thread needs more pictures. If you do cool stuff, you should post pictures so we can look at it!
I have spent entirely too much money on R/C airplanes. I don't own all the planes
pictured in this closet, but I own other ones that aren't in that closet. The best kinds of hobbies are the ones where you can watch your dollar bills burn, aren't they?
Before I moved out to Washington to work with commercial jets, I spent a lot of
time restoring vintage airplanes. There are a ton of airplanes here too, but recently I've been spending time on the water with
old sailboats. (Dock on the left is filled with boats when people aren't renting them)
Also used to spend a lot of time messing around with CNC
routers & tools, but I don't think I could
hoist this up into my third story apartment. (Probably the only picture of a lobster trap and CNC machine together on the internet)
I've taken a couple of flights and am on a waitlist to fly gliders at a local club here. Definitely the most fun I've had in airplane.
And you can't live out here without riding an
old bike... still working on the skinny jeans and thick rimmed glasses though.
I need to find a garage, my lathe is sitting in a box and probably getting pretty lonely.
