Tons of stuff...

Reading
computers
music
gardening

and of course the SCA ....



Which has opened avenues to other hobbies like leather crafting (yes, I also make bondage gear, and such)...

My demi-gauntlet (Hand protection while fighting)...


I am also a cordwain (shoe maker)...
A shoe in mid build (the leather looks grey becaus I haven't oiled it yet which will return it's black color)...


A close up of the stitching. My shoes and boots are all custom made, hand stitched...


I also do a bit of metal work/blacksmithing. Here is a helmet I am working on...


The helmet was worked cold, no heat. It's been made using Viking construction techinques with help from modern tools. No welding on it, it's all held together with steel rivets.


I do lot's of things, but by far (aside from biking) The SCA and leatherworking are my faves.

What kind of a lady doesn't forge weld their helmets??? ;)



*I do a little leather work, but it's been quite sometime since I worked in the fire. I should go retrieve my loaned out forge. :think:

Backpacking, climbing, woodworking, doing stupid things when drunk and I am really good at breaking things. I used to like target shooting but don't live close enought to a range to do it anymore.

i like to play guitar, snowboard, surf, and bodyboard. although i might sell my surfboard and focus more on bodyboarding i feel so much more comfortable in the water on a small board, but thats also because my surfing skills suck. its hard to find a really good learning wave in new england. no long, slow peeling waves that you can ride for more than 10 seconds. anybody here remember good ole hurricane fabian a few years back? i went to hampton one day and it was insane. although i thought i was gonna drown in the morning since i lent my leash to a friend and decided to go bodyboarding without a leash, a closeout set caught me be surprise and ripped the board away from me before i could get totally under the wave. swimming 100 yards to the beach in 8 foot waves with a strong current is not fun.

I climb, garden, camp, play guitar, paintball (haven't in 2 years and am considering selling my gun) and read. I also do a lot of music browsing, and I tend to get involved in construction type things on a regualr basis too.

I don't have a scanner, so it's either photo of a photo or no dice. First and last two are me, but I DID partake in the second, no doubt.
