Recurve.
Building the dolmens is a lot more fun though. I'd like to think I tricked some white kids into believing they find a Native American religious site.

Neat. What's your draw length and weight?

>>38669608
They are? Only socially frustrated underaged neckbeards have tried to commission a blade over 14", so I stopped making them before I got v& because a customer tried to go for the high score. I mostly stick to custom hand tool making and antique reproduction. I had a fairly popular custom crochet hook line for a while, but it was all online third party work.

bowfishing invasive species sounds like a lot of fun, but my wrists and arms are so weak, i can't even open a bottle of water without difficulty

blacksmithing also sounds neat, but i'd just want to watch, and probably not for long since my attention span is null.

you sound like you live in a fairly outdoorsy place based on your hobbies, is that right?

yo speaking of interests i like trucks but have never drove one how do you put it in gear when first starting put? spunds like a no brainer probably but when ive felt of trucks shifters when theyre off theyll usually only have a gear or two you can actually put it in since it dpesnt have syncromesh

is it easy to put it in gear when the truck is actually running? like i know ive been able to only put it in reverse or 5th when its parked or just 4th

How often do you use your mickey boots? I've been down to -20F for 4 hours and they still were too warm.

>>38669974
There are wrist guards that can take pretty much all the strain off your wrists, and compound bows are pretty easy to hold drawn. You really only need about 25lbs for boat fishing, since you'll rarely shoot past 7' out or 3' deep.

3D printing might be more your speed.

I grew up in the suburbs around los angeles, and was the bane of the neighborhood. Moved to the midwest for college, same story. Moved to the ghetto and was welcomed as the token whiteboi, and was frequently burglarized until the neighborhood was bought out by the city for demolition.

>>38670053
Nice. My bowfishing rig was a pigfat hoyt with a 26" draw at 40lbs. Worked fine for carp, but I sold it a few years ago. I'm thinking about getting something big enough for deer now that I have a reliable freezer, and my industry shuts down during the first week of rifle season anyway.

>>38670068
They're pretty easy once you figure out how the clutch brake works (you just push the clutch pedal to the floor and wait a second). Once you're moving and know the rpm range of the gears, you don't even use the clutch, and can go from gear to gear with one finger (floating/revmatching).

>Surfing
Yes, in fact I mention this trait any way I can and found its a great initiator that can lead to "Hey will you teach me to surf?"

Maybe sort of, weird hobby but it gets me juiced
>>
>>38671215
Where do you live that surfing is unusual?
>>
>>38671215
Southern California, about 30-45 minutes from the coast. So surfing is not completely unusual but its not like I live in a beach town.

I'm a purple belt in BJJ and have been training Muay Thai for 4 years now.

At first I was doing BJJ just for the physical touch of people but now its more of a routine than anything else. I'm actually growing to despise it since everyone I meet makes a joke about it being gay. I've bruised/torn my ACL, fucked my collar bone, destroyed my nose and had my shoulder dislocated 3 times. I think I've just become accustomed to the pain or think I deserve it subconsciously. The worst part is having this stinky 27 year old girl who never washes her Gi or crotch trying to triangle me. Even if you tap she makes sure to leave you there for a extra few seconds so you can whiff her terrible stench.

I also clean and restore WW2 weaponry. I recently got some Bayonets from France that I'm going to be working on soon. They're in my workshop.
>>
>>38671775
>Dislocating your shoulder three times
Anon, you're not doing yourself any favors. Once you dislocated a limb, it's pretty fucked and becomes prone to further dislocation and injury.
>>
>>38671775
Do you have any SVT-40 bayonets? They're obviously not french but I'm having a hard time finding anything where I live.
>>
>>38669974
compound bows do all the work for you. you think the pulleys are just for show?

I know. I don't care anymore. It feels like I'm already past my prime at the age of 25. After the second time I just popped it back in instead of going to the ER or asking my RN brother to do it.

>>38671855
I'n afraid not. I usually get custom orders from VAs to restore or clean up their old memorabilia. Most of it either looted Gook shit or Natzi equipment. I've never gotten my hands on alot of Russian stuff.

I run solo guerrilla warfare drills in the woods near my house and simulate survival situations. I go in basically without water or food and try to survive the weekend. I pretend there's imaginary enemies, ambush them, and "shoot" them with my sks but not really because people nearby will hear the gunshots.

I think girls would think I'm a freak if they ever found out about my hobby.

I also make flower arrangements. Mostly with wildflowers I find in the woods during my mock raids and survival exercises. They wouldn't like that either because it's not chadly.
>>
>>38672324
You could downscale it a bit to survival tactics, camping and the art of war. A lot of cute kinda hippy girls like wilderness shit.
>>
>>38669162

I spend a lot of my time developing trading algorithms, but I don't ever tell anyone about it because then I have to explain it that's probably hobby 1, 2 and 3 and my job.

I tell a lot of people I am a gardener, or that I want to be a gardener when I grow up just to avoid talking about my hobby because no one seems to understand it/

I build plastic airplane models, building a B-17G right now and a B-24J next, although German planes are generally better to build in my opinion. I have an airbrush and their liveries look a lot nicer than just bare metal aluminum or olive-drab. Also planning on putting together a Nieuport 28, WWI French biplane. Bit of history, the highest scoring American ace Eddie Rickenbacker in WWI flew it and so did TR's son Quentin Roosevelt. Also all of TR's sons except Quentin who was killed in WWI served in both world wars.

Extreme cold weather gear is for arctic circle, antarctic continent type of stuff. The only time id wear mickey boots is in the most adverse of conditions, theyre rated to -20 but again, arctic winters like -35 and lower would be about where extreme cold weather gear starts to shine. Again, think of John Carpenter's The Thing, Arctic Circle and Antartic expiditions require ECW gear.
