Monza to watch F1 live.

Although this is permanently on hold until the cars stop sounding like vacuum cleaners and sound like real cars again.

I watched the F1 in Montreal 2008.

Need to watch Isle of Mann & Rally championships. I like real world racing

I guess I am like that. I like learning & I love a challenge. After reading that using your brain can delay Alzheimer's, I can't stop giving myself a challenge.

I want to do some woodworking now. My largest project so far.

Same reasoning here, with respect to keeping the brain active. I forgot to add that one of my ongoing projects is building a wooden stand to hold my small collection of swords and bows.

// thread hijack-- @rockerguy I would add a 6" long piece of 2x4 under each of those beams using 4 screws per piece. Just as an added support. And use outdoor screws as the garage will be subject to temp changes/ humidity. Maybe overkill, but better safe than sorry, imo.

I always figured that having a bucket list would mean I wasn't satisfied with my life. I am. If I actually feel the urge to do something, I do it, and the urge doesn't come up very often. I felt like picking up some new skills so I taught myself chainmailing, basic leatherworking, and making archery bows out of PVC pipe (just 'cause). I wanted to meet the people who make some of my favourite web series and indie movies, so a couple of weeks back I went out to Seattle and did exactly that. I really can't think of anything that I really want to do that I haven't, apart from win a big lottery.

Nice looking place. Had a look when I was there, but didn't go to the base of it.

It's a thing. Lots of people do it because it only takes some basic tools, like a heat gun. I generally make them out of 3/4" Schedule 40 white PVC pipe, using oak 1X2 to make siyahs (end pieces). I made this one for a friend:

Here's an example of a video made by Youtuber "BackyardBowyer", on how to make a simple youth bow.
