Have any unusual hobbies?

Question

Rock collecting, photography, writing, and knitting are not all that unusual. If you think it's unusual, go ahead and post it, but I am looking for something along the lines of urban exploration or letterboxing.

Answer 1

I have a lot of unusual hobbies.  One of my favorite is re purposing or reusing items in a way that they were not intended.  For example, I collect bottles and candle jars.  Friends give me unusual liquor bottles that I turn into all kinds of things.  I add whiskey spouts to make them pourers for vinegars, oils, dish soap, hand soap, bath oil, etc.  I decorate candle jars to use for homemade goodies at Christmas.  I also do illumination, metal repose, faux finishing and collect and refurbish vintage and antique wrought and cast iron.

Answer 5

What you call unusual depends who you hang out with. We're in the SCA, so sword fighting is pretty normal. My relatives, on the other hand, think it's weird :)

Answer 6

Free running and base jumping... its unusual because you must be completely mental to do them :)  

Answer 7

  rebuilding and flying WW-2 aircraft, maintaining a WW-2 aircraft carrier, (OK it is now a museum but i get to play with it) and general kids games with the real thing. Now that's a hobby I never thought I could get as a kid.
