Eurorack aka the modular black hole. That and cars, primarily imports. Mountain biking and camping, but a lot less of that now a days.

I’m trying to figure out how to connect a VCO to the 10v out on an Apex and what it could do, lol.
Good random wave maker...LOL

Beer making does not take that much time, usually a lot of sitting around watching water boil. Sailing, I usually go a couple weeks a year, usually helping a friend move his boat around to avoid hurricane season when him and his wife are done doing their part time cruising or when he need a guys week, thanks to him I have sailed to Bermuda, Antigua to Grenada a couple of times, the Bahamas about a half dozen times and from Florida to Maryland and back 3 or 4 times.
IF you need anymore crew hit me up....I used to sail, was even on a race team at one time.

Just checked your machine out online....Very cool....I used to row on the water...The only thing I have not liked about a machine is they always have you use both hands on the same pull(oar). in a boat you have to be conscious of pulling evenly on both sides. I would love to get back into it. Have you used other machines? How does this compare? I get that it has a screen for workouts but how is it as just a rowing machine? Looks like the peleton of rowers....:)
Just rowing machine, best part about is you get to train with top athletes. There are live classes and prerecord sessions. As far as performance goes, it’s the best rowing machine on the mark. As close to the real thing as you can get.

There is a Facebook group that can give you good insight on what’s it all about. Full body workout with low impart.

Definitely recommend it for any level (beginners to hardcore rowers)

I used to have a little 8' dinghy I enjoyed rowing; a machine just isn't nearly the same as a rowboat !

I have a camper sitting at the lake, that takes up most of my weekends working on the property or fishing.
I use to like guns, but ammo is too valuable to throw downrange now.
That ammunition sure is expensive ! Especially name brands like Winchester ! I have a Ruger high-powered air rifle for fun; the ammo sure is dirt cheap and it is fun for plinking cans and bottles, etc.

Tell me reefers, is it just reefkeeping or are you into other hobbies?!

I find it interesting that I share some random things in common with most of my fellow fishkeeper friends.. and I also find that a lot of the same people are very busy people lol.

I’m into a million hobbies. Some I’m not really sure are hobbies, and I’m new to reef keeping but we’ll say it counts.. but for me personally:
- Horses, I’ve ridden since I was 5 years old, always have always will, competitively and just for fun. My horse Sammy is 24 yrs old and I’ve had him for 17 years!
- Skiing - every winter, any weekend that I can!
- Dogs.. I love dogs. And cats, but mostly dogs. I compete my aussie in agility and go to AKC trials several times a year.
- Painting, drawing, sketching.. any kind of art really.. I love projects and new crafty things to work on
- Rally racing. Cars in general. I take my STi to the track every once and a while! I’ve also never owned an automatic vehicle lol.
- Kayaking, hiking, camping, boating, all the outdoorsy things.. we do it.
- ball pythons.. not so much any more (no time for it) but we had a really cool breeding pair and sold several clutches! Only have the lone male now.

I’m sure there’s more, but reefing is my newest hobby.. but I’m crazy and like to keep busy. :) what about you?

Hey twin !

my primary non aquarium hobby is scale modeling. This is a big Melennium Falcon I built for someone and just finished it about a week ago. I worked slow it took about two years. It is a studio scale model of the Empire Strikes Back Falcon and yes it is huge.
