My other hobbies include, Photography, mainly Wildlife photogrpahy (especially small stuff) fell walking when my knees can take it, computers.
I even know what my next hobby is going to be, building my new house and workshop. Although i think it may become a bit more of a head-ache than a hobby[:p]

Here is the plot,

My other hobbies are Walking, Guitar, Mountain Biking, Reading, Running, Yoga and I am also getting into web design.

None take over from Pen Turning/Woodturning, but I do enjoy walking as a close second both in the lakes and nearer home also.

Fishing,(summertime charter boat Capt.), metal detecting, bow hunting, pen turning, and naps. Not neccisarily in that order.

Greg, it definitely looks to be the pelvis from something. Those types of joints are very distinguishable. Only I have no idea what the something might be.

Ha!Ha! Royd Coddington!For you not into Street Rods Boyd Coddington is one of the biggest Street Rod builders in the country and the owner of Coddington Street Rods who manufacture Street rod parts and wheels.
 
Yes Dave, Some marbles are very rare and hard to find. Several factors determine the rariety of a marble such as, what old company made them, how many and what color were made, just to mention a few. I wish I had the old marbles when I was a kid that I shot out of a slingshot.

I had NO idea that people did this! I mean, I knew that I collected marbles when I was a kid, but I didn't know that there were antique marbles out there! Is it kind of like baseball cards, meaning, are there some marbles that everyone wants to get their hands on because they are rare and valuable?

Depends on the mood I'm in, but sometimes I think my real hobby is collecting stuff under the guise of taking up a hobby! [;)]

At any rate, other than penturning, I'm into cars (I have a 71 MG Midget, and am building a kit right now), flatwork, home remodel/repair/etc., some photography, a little astronomy, computers / electronics / robotics, video games. Used to be into ham radio a little, but not for years.
 
Interesting topic. I love to fish, (someday I want to get into rod building) I am a pretty fair bowler, (my favorite ally closed down also) [:(!], I also love history and spending time with my friends and family. Is that a hobby? lol And of course, other types of woodworking other than turning.
 
pen turning, bowl turning, carving characters, scroll work, marquetry work, wood collecting, tool collecting, flat work, and toy making..

Non woodworking is collecting 50's Packards and pickup trucks, fishing, online gaming, and just goofing off....
