Three young boys in the house can make hobbies a bit difficult at times but when I can, I have enjoyed scratch building ship models, working in my woodshop - always something that needs building or fixing around the house, photography, reading, and for a little venting I have enjoyed making a hellac...

I have no problem with them being used to help as a source of useful information and am happy someone finds them useful. But I would like to see some type of source credit...
