    Well, what kinds of things do you like to do?

    I sculpt, dabble in astrophotography and volunteer for wildlife rescue. But then those are all things I enjoy.

    You could play an instrument, write a story, take up any number of artisan crafts, play a sport, jog... really the list is endless.

    Details about making stuff? I don't know what you like, or what kind of resources you have, so just some random things, woodworking, pottery, stained-glass, building a bike, some kind of design work, drone(small scale) building, try your hand at 3D printing? I don't know, is there something you'd want to make?

    Nothing really, I just have a tendency to assume I can accomplish just about anything I can attempt at, but that is part of the problem, also the other part is I do not have much interest in "just anything", that is kinda why I am asking people for anything they like doing or specific activities. Although everything I have read so far sound intriguing.

    Though I do like making smaller scales of things, but I kinda might wanna look for what will get me out of the house at the same time also.

    Keep'em coming people. :slight_smile: Everything sounds interesting.

    For me, it's: Photography (Astro, landscape, meteorological), cars (working on, racing, audio), the weather (forecasting, chasing, watching, and photographing of course), fishing, riding ATVs/dirt bikes. Those are the main ones anyway.

    Thank you, I shall put that into consideration. For I was thinking on purchasing a bike.
    Although it would mainly be for an alternate transportation mainly, but thanks for answering. Appreciated.

    When I think of "hobby," I can't think but of "collecting." I've collected coins, stamps, Hot Wheels, and silverware. Maybe you can pick something you like and build a collection.

    Astrophotography is cool.
    I like building shit. I've built some robots, lego things, and household things over the years.

    The only three things I ever do is play my flute and draw...and gaming. I watch my fair share of tv too, but that's not exactly a hobby, is it?

    Game speedrunning or perhaps playing competitive well. Only gaming related hobbies I want to get into but require a lot of effort.

    I like writing little melodies and playing them on my piano, but it can get slightly tiresome after a while.

    I make and repair books, but that's just what I like to do. If It interests you, you could maybe Google classes in your area? You'll have a tough time finding classes in LA, though.
