    I'm making Halloween costumes for my son and myself. I've also been tinkering with an arduino with him. I also got to do a little arduino demo for kids in a local foster care center. I've also built the site in my signature. Also, I put together an android app that gives the user x-ray vision to look to the other side of the Earth.

          Well, I started trying to learn a musical instrument, but found out my only talent is for playing the radio. Then, I thought making videos would be neat, but I was informed that I have a face perfect for radio. So, I thought about singing and was told that I should be on the radio ... so they could turn it off. Hmm .... maybe I should try radios? Now they tell me I have a voice perfectly made for Morse code. I make, restore, use and collect Morse code keys and tinker with radios and antennas.

            At various times I have: - rebuilt cars. Too many cars. - renovate houses - landscape (everything from the lawns, feature gardnes tree removal and inground sprinkler systems) - I once had a thriving business growing and selling carnivorous plants. Isn't that what all high school kids did in their spare time? - I make a better pavlova than Maxx.

            cheers Chris Maunder

            It doesn't look like I will be able to get to MM's birthday - but in the event we both make it there, it'll be Pavs at 50 paces :)

                              OK, so John takes dead cars and turns them into super-cars, I take wood and make houses/furniture/absolutely anything out of it, and DD takes suckers and makes money out of them (tres tory); but we're extremes, and this place is full of analytical brains that should be able to turn their associated hands to anything, so what is it that you actually, physically make, when not sitting at a computer?

                                    A 1:72 scale trio of V-Bombers. All painted in classic anti-flash white. Placed on a low, black coffee table that I assembled myself. :-D

                                      Baking is something I've had wildly varying degrees of success with. Madam bought the Great British Bake-off and Fat Paul's Pies & Puds books, so at least she's getting better at it.

                                          OK, so John takes dead cars and turns them into super-cars, I take wood and make houses/furniture/absolutely anything out of it, and DD takes suckers and makes money out of them (tres tory); but we're extremes, and this place is full of analytical brains that should be able to turn their associated hands to anything, so what is it that you actually, physically make, when not sitting at a computer?
