Let's see;

Blacksmithing and metal work (though I'm probably a better welder than blacksmith)

Cars, I have an 1970 VW Beetle I'm restoring, got the engine done the summer of '08, this summer I painted it, and now I'm putting it back together. I'm also quite into everything that has an engine, the bigger the better. A little side project atm is trying to convince a friend that their boat needs a restored engine, and that they'd let me do it (since they can't even change a spark plugs on the damned thing)

Straight Razors, Dave's pictures on here are responsible for getting me interested. :mrgreen: I'm no artisan though, I just shave with a nice carbon steel Dovo.

Photography, I use a Olympus E-520 which I love. Pictures can be seen here; http://www.flickr.com/sstorholm

Music, I've been playing electric bass for 8-9 years now. I also fiddle about with guitars as well, but I'm not proficient enough to call myself a guitarist. :lol:

Computers, I've had my own since I was about 7 or something, so it's a big part of my life. I also work with them atm, but I'm not considering making it my profession.

That's the major ones, I've probably forgotten at least five :D

Now I officially hate you! :mrgreen: Personally it's Fender Jazz Bass (MIJ, Ash body, maple neck) -> SWR Mo'Bass -> Ampeg SVT 1x15 and 2x10. Sometimes I also use an G&L L-2000.

BTW, are you one talkbass by any chance? I'm on there under the same nick. :)

My diesel Isuzu pickup ("P'up"). Just bought a new one in September (of 1983). It's finally broken in, and getting 37-38 MPG in town (that gives me a 600+ mile range on each fill-up). I plan to keep it until it wears out.

I operate the IsuzuPup.com website for about 2,500 owners and wanna-be owners.

Yeah, I've been there a long-time under this nick as well. Although these days I mostly just post in OT. I don't venture into gear forums unless I'm specifically looking to buy or I will soon find myself looking to buy if I wasn't already.

Yeah, the GAS (gear acquisition syndrome) you get on talkbass is even worse than the upgratitis you get on here. :mrgreen:
