The Weekend Hobby Thread (2/24/24)

If you are going to spend over $3,000 for your hobby at one time, you better make sure you catch fish and get your significant other something of significance. Just sayin'.

Any way, welcome to The Weekend Hobby Thread. This is the place to discuss hobbies, projects and whatever keeps you busy within reason. There is only one rule here, please no politics/current events discussion.

Seems I have fishing on my mind. I'm not sure where I would put this if I went this route. But then again I like our local sport shop owners. They need to make a buck or two.

Friend and fellow Cob Weasel has the weekly Sunday Gun Thread. It is a fine thread. And since the following isn't a gun, I'm not cutting into Weasel's territory.

Now, I might be stepping on Weasel's toes with the following.

I know many of you have grandchildren. And I know you want to bring them up as Morons. Just don't carry the following through the Homeland Security check lines. They will not see any humor in your gift. Also if you are busted, don't blame it on The Weekend Hobby Thread.

The In-Box didn't receive many Hobby Thread, hobbies, tips, stories, etc. But one Moron sent in a photo and quick description of his hobby.

I do leatherwork, holsters mostly. Jasonj, moron in good standing

You might have been a Moron in Better Standing if you had sent an additional photo of the revolvers. Just kidding, beautiful work on those holsters.

Flasher units (sonar) are nice and I have one. But having the AV opens up a new world altogether. This is my 2nd AV. I still have my B&W unit from the early 2000s.

The Weekend Hobby Thread came about after the tragic and untimely passing of OregonMuse. J.J. Sefton and I took it upon ourselves to author this thread since we weren't chess players.

One of my first Hobby Threads featured the hobby of bird feeding. The Fabulous and I enjoy the various animals and birds at our various feeders. One draw back about bird and/or deer feeders are squirrels. So you woodworkers, if you want a project and help out bird feeding hobbyists, feel free to build the following.

The following may be the perfect project for you to stay out of your significant other's hair or way.

Extreme Ironing? Heck, I'm lucky if I can get the Fabulous to do any nonchalant ironing.

Feel free to discuss these or any other hobbies, crafts, projects. You are encouraged to send Jenkins Green paint, 20/0 fan brushes, blank canvas, photos, stories, tips, stories or any other type of hobby item to petmorons at gmail dot com. See you in 2 weeks, Mr. Sefton has recovered and we will be in the director's chair next Saturday March 2nd. Until then, Keep on Hobbying!
