Woodworking and just making shit in general. It’s the main reason I’m so frustrated about not being able to own a house. I’m constantly thinking about things I’d like to build or learning about methods of doing things I’d like to try and I just can’t. Closest I get is fixing shit for my friends sometimes.
Here in portland OR they have places with all the tools for hobby woodworkers. Not sure what it is called, but it’s whole purpose is for people who don’t have a shop of their own to still be able to do stuff. And it comes with a whole community of people to learn from.
Yeah, those too. Though the one I heard of was more focused on woodwork and powertools than maker spaces usually are. But maker spaces should fit the bill as well.

I think some are called “maker space” and I think it’s like a membership you pay and you gain access to a full shop of tools.
