Mine is mapping. I am a big OpenStreetMap contributor and I have mapped many towns near me that were previously completely unmapped.

Mostly power tools, but I'm decent with a few hand tools when necessary. Recently I mortised some door hinges with a chisel. But for the vast majority of my projects, renovating our house over 35 years, I wouldn't have had the patience without power tools - I can barely hit a nail with a real hammer anymore lol. What kinds of projects do you do?

Tool making, and eventually furniture. Recently built a very large toolbox, chisel tray, lay out tools, marking gauges, couple plane bodies, saw vice, planing board (atedai) and saw horses.

Those sound like cool projects. Make any xmas gifts?

Some chopsticks, potentially a knife block and maybe some other utensils.
