What are your other hobbies besides campertrailers?
« on: March 29, 2011, 07:44:16 PM »
Mine are guitar building repairing and playing.

Current projects include restoration of quite a few 1950/60's guitars

recent builds

A hollow baritone strat type guitar



My 50's Strat replica built to exact specs of a Fender 57 Stratocaster



I also enjoy lots of hiking in the bush and photography

Well my forum name might give you some indication...... just love being up the creeks, chasing those big chrome scaly beasts..... even if i'm not catchin' anything, i'm still enjoying just cruising about the waterways, enjoying the sites, crocs, birds, bait fish jumping, sun setting or rising over the water etc..... can't get enough of it.

The tug to tow the CT with...  We probably do 50% of trips without the CT, love 4wding.  Nowadays just starting to get back into hunting.  Time to send a few ferals to where ever they go when they leave this world but the aim at the moment is to get into deer stalking.

Scrapbooking, photography, drinking, camping, fishing, sleeping, reading, cooking, pissing people off, laughing, killing small black kitchen ants ... not necessarily in that order.

My other hobbies are Guitar and Drums, although not so much these days, Homebrew, collecting German beer steins, dirtbikes and I'm restoring a 1973 H2A 750 triple Kawasaki 2 stroke, I also raced bikes for a while, the highlight, racing at Bathurst.

I too play guitar and drums and a few other instruments, i also raced bikes at Bathurst mine was a Bultaco Metrella that spat me off on Conrod after it seized. Raced a Husky 250 in the dirt and rode a Suzuki 250 MotoX for Hazel and Moore in Newcastle. Last bike i owned was a Moto Guzzi Mille GT 1000 that i sold in the late 90's after i broke my neck in 6 places, not from coming off the bike. Doing up Subarus for touring and offroad was my passion for a long time but these days its restoring the old camper in my driveway.

Some other things i fit into my life

Metal Detecting, going to get more serious when the campers up and running.
making guitar pickups, need to buy a new coil winder.
Writing and recording my own tunes, i have a small studio here at home.
