Go for it!

I've seen this ship on a few occasions docked and also sailing out of Whitby. Don't try and build it in one hit. My Victory usually comes out at Christmas time for a few weeks.

Not sure if it really counts as a hobby, but I like to make tins of lager into empty tins of lager

I've been known to dabble in a bit of sketching and painting, but haven't done much for a while. One of my better efforts in watercolour and gouache:

Yes, other than the Fazer. I am into making replica side covers for various makes and models of classic bikes that I sell all over the world. Just finished a Honda CB900 Custom mould and layed up my first replica this afternoon. Waiting on the fibre glass to set and see what the mould produces. Just a few of the models I make for. I also replicate the side cover emblems and other parts too.
Also like to do a bit of machining etc, My next purchase looks like it will be a Milling machine to go with the lathe and tig welder.
