Ask HN: Share Your Eccentric Hobby

I was telling people on a post that got flagged (because the Article had that LLM , one of my eccentric hobbies (restoring paintings). They responded with an equally cool hobby. I bet there are a lot more of us out there, please share. To keep it tidy I'll put a comment about mine below.

I (the OP) restore paintings! I buy oil paintings off FB marketplace being sold for £5-£25 normally or from charity shops, and restore them. AMA

I (also the OP) am refitting a small (25ft) yacht I bought for £1. Eccentric enough? What if I told you I had never sailed a yacht and it is about a 4 hour drive to get to it? AMA
