Hi Tim,

Some great hobbies there. How good are you on the Airbrush, do you do any business airbrushing?

Nope not that good, one day I hope to be. Have been away from it for a while because I couldn't leave everything set up but I'm about to build a new shed where I can have a dedicated area so I can put some more time into it.

do you guys set up a fume extractor where you do this ?

paint fumes do nasty things to lungs

i spent big $$$ to set up fume extraction gear at work but i play with welding , grinding and machining all day

Most of what I have sprayed has just been water based acrylic onto paper, when I am spraying the nasty stuff I wear a respirator but there is very little vapor left in the air when using an airbrush so its not really a problem.
 
I was wondering if we do anything else apart from looking at Prospecting Australia, and I guess we do.
Painting (art)
Photography
Music (mandolin)
Fly Tying (salt water)
Wood turning

Yep don,t know how I find time to work hehehehe

Collect old bottles , spent many a day digging old wells and rubbish pits. Detecting should prove helpful addition in finding old domestic dumps on propertys. Collect oil/petrol related items ( tins , bottles ,signs even bowsers) plus heaps of other interesting old stuff picked up along the way.

I will have a go at most things but if I'm not out walking creeks I'm either fishing, on the golf course or watching the EPL, A-league or NRL.
 
I like online gaming and fiddling with computers. Both of which push me towards website design and all that sort of stuff as a job.

Also teaching myself a bit of photography.

Do you have any trade certification for the last one ?

I did a 4 year cadetship in alcoholism after I left school but I didn't specialise , I pretty much dabbled evenly in beers , spirits and liqueurs , I even did my thesis on champagne but repeated on it a few times

Whew champagne really does make for some el stinko vomit , especially when mixed with odour de dashboard of le' taxi
