I'm researching getting into 3D printing. My spouse is sort of on board, because they think about the cool things they can do with it. We'd love to print some cool stuff to solve mini problems, but also for the reward of designing and building things ourselves.
Congrats on your bike, that sounds like a really fun and cool project!
I used to want a bike and loved the idea of one. Bikes, as an adult, is something I can't get into. I wanted to get a sportbike when I was 19 or so, but around then I met my spouse and they told me about their dad's accident on a bike. The dad was a Navy military person, super into safety. He wore full padded armor, helmet, the works. He was stopped at a light and behind a car. Then a car rear-ended him. He ended up being propelled over the car in front of him and landed in the intersection. Broke his leg, broke a few ribs, messed up his knee, and now he has continued pain he deals with. He wouldn't be alive if he wasn't wearing all the proper armor while biking. And then I see bikers on the road without helmets and wearing a tee shirt and jeans LOL. They're playing a dangerous game. So unfortunately, bikes are now no longer for me!
