I am one of those folks that is in love with human ingenuity. I am fascinated by how things are made. One of my loves is tools and figuring out what something was used for. I am usually pretty good at figuring it out. Have been taking things apart since I was a kid, just to see how they were made.
I am a car guy (MG's) and also do a lot of other things. I am frugal, which means I always try to fix something myself. One of my other hobbies is making props for your folks SciFy and anime conventions.
My favorite creation. I made a Ghost Buster Dancing Toaster.

Catch22, welcome to tool talk. where do you call home these days ?
MG's ? in 1961 when I got out of the Army, all I had was a 1953 MG - TD and a 250cc Allstate motorcycle that I
rode home on from Ft. Bragg, N.C. to Massachusetts that I paid $100 for 3 weeks before my duty was over.
we went on our honeymoon in the MG, then after the lil ones started coming, it was good by MG. (WE BOTH MISS IT)
I hope that you find this site as interesting as I do. looking forward to hear more about your interests.
Frank from Massachusetts.

I had an MGA in the early 70's, along with a Triumph motorcycle. Miss them both.

I tried to buy an MGB. 1978, I think. It had the electric overdrive on the shift lever. Ran like a scalded monkey. But it was brown. Couldn't make myself do it.
Got a 64 1/2 Mustang coupe in Rangoon Red instead. Really loved it.
