Either a new roland fantom 06 or an audio interface and some expensive DAW.
Less than one collector booster box of cards from the latest set…
About like 10 of the must have flashlights or a few good customs. Or one fourth of some really extreme ones.
Almost endless quantities (for me anyway) of 3d printing filament and small electronic parts.
A couple pieces niche test equipment that I’ll ude once a year.
A new practice basket. A new stack of practice putters. A cart. With plenty left over for me to get a few more backups for some of my favorite discs.
A low-uptime server to backup my current one
Or a really crazy sex toy maybe, depends on how responsible I’m feeling
All you need to start playing Standard, Pioneer and maybe Modern in Magic the Gathering. Or like maybe half a Legacy deck.
In my other hobbies which are rebuilding with old lego by hand and imagination, baking and reading a grand will keep me good for a year. Or 5. Depends on motivation and how many free books I pick up.
A few years ago I finally sold my assortment of still-sealed merch I was given during my time at WotC (Phrexia through Innistrad). It fetched almost $5k. Still, it’s hard to believe a grand won’t buy a thorougly awesome legacy deck. Never really was a player myself tho and I haven’t kept up with current prices at all, so I believe it.
Whilst my grow light is rather good, there are upgraded options I could take advantage of. For my small sized grow area I could try my hand at a small rDWC setup, a new light, and an automated system for persistently maintaining VPD (perhaps one of those ACFinity ones with the app, or a similar sort of thing).
1L flasks, dimroth condenser, heating mantle, heating plate, materials to build an electric kiln, if i have anything left i’d use it on chemicals
and i’m probably already overbudget, home chemistry is fucked price-wise, we’re lucky to have synthware for all our glassware needs but for equipment you either diy it or go broke (a good hotplate is ~500$ new, 200$ used in bad conditions)
Two new hobbies to keep me in the realitytm.
for the twisted
It’s just art and music. Plus a likely revival of old skill.
… my favorite hobby “this week”
A basic road bike I guess? 😅
*hi-fives in serial hobbyist that also just got into bicycles*
(except there’s been a heat advisory where I live for the past week so I can’t ride safely 😭)
Ah! Same here… I just went 20 minutes really early in the morning 🤣
The wind is good when you’re moving but as soon as you stop for a red light… you die…!
2 years of yoga classes.
Or
All of the garden beds, fencing, and good soil I got for the garden.
Either a guitar… or a gpu
Lots and lots of games, either boardgames or digital. Or a better computer.
