Maker stuff in general: Woodworking, 3D Printing (including a bit of single-part CAD), laser engraving, even Cricut. Recent projects have been all about handwired keyboards, which combines several of those, and finally got me to learn just enough soldering to get by. Woodworking is currently in a lull, but it's always the one I go back to and the one taking up the most space in the garage. I really do need to make that desk I've been planning for a decade, though. The Ikea trestle table has seen better days.

Oh, some light gaming (rocking an ebay RX580 on a second-gen Ryzen 5 which I massaged to be able to run Starfield enjoyably enough at 1080p), fountain pens, the aforementioned keyboards, fantasy/sci-fi media, and I'm possibly outside the usual Lemmy demographic a bit in following football (soccer) and football (gridiron) [email protected] .

Reading, In-Person Roleplaying Games, Disc Golf, and Writing.

Video games, hiking, running, gardening, puzzles by myself, and board games when I can find a group to play with.

I make music - mostly black metal, I play a lot of Blood on the Clocktower, and I'm a software developer who likes contributing to open source outside of work.

Mostly video games and programming. I spend a lot of time working on programming side projects. It's often kinda like playing a puzzle video game.

Commenting on Lemmy

D&D, 3d printing, pen turning (making pens from wood and resin, not flipping them around on my fingers), MTG, and I dabble in woodworking and occasional metal working.

FYI: 3d printing pairs really well with D&D - minis, scenery, accessories, etc. Start with a cheap SLA resin printer to print minis on, then expand to filament when you’re ready to do scenery too. I have a resin printer and two filament printers.

I make music, primarily, but i also bounce a lot. I really love writing, which comes easier than music tho i do it less. Past that hiking is like an "as often as possible or my mind will break" thing. Even our tiny local park is nice for this purpose, but i try to get around as much as im able. I like corrupting the advertisements i get in the mail with sharpies and make them look more blinging. And satanic. Or perverted.
