Default Other Hobby Addictions
So I was wondering the other day, how many aquarists are like me and have more than one hobby their hoplessly addicted to.

Myself, I'm into rc aircraft. I have 2 fuel powered helicopters with 50" rotorspans, and 3 airplanes ranging from 35" to 74" wingspans, all electric, and one that I've clocked at 210 kph.

On top of that I've been known to spend a few too many hours playing video games :P.

How about you guys?

Not so much as of late because of my PhD but a sample of my hobby list looks something like:

Gardening/farming
Rebuilding cars
Mountain biking
3D printing/ CNC machining
RC Ducted Jets
Guitar, bass and drums
Electronics
Brewing beer

... And it goes on. This isn't like dabbling here and there. We're talking full on into each.

I guess I can add car audio to the list. I thought I outgrew it being 28 now, but last hear I got the urge to tweak my blazer just a little

I like to build and fly aircraft, esp amphib floatplanes. Here is one of my planes (took me 8 years to build it) and a favorite alpine lake destination, Skwawka Lake (only accessible by floatplane).


And a couple youtubes flying into and out of there.

Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.
