Right on that sounds pretty cool / interesting.
I am ok with a soldering iron and my voltage meter but not too much more.
So it sounds like you are far more skilled than i am with some of that stuff.
Re-purposing things is pretty cool and gives you a sense of satisfaction preventing more garbage.
And "projects" ..stuff for you to do on a daily basis maybe too.
I should show you all a picture of my bike.. it looks and works great but was a LOT of work.
I rotate through stuff over time to keep my spare time busy.. always a few tasks per day.
Such as the Bike work i do or occasionally i rip apart my PC and clean it really good.
Or do software based cleaning etc
Or hobbys like i have been learning Android APP cracking.
I also keep my home clean and make sure to get out for fresh air riding around town.
The key is not overloading yourself with too much but working at things bit by bit staying busy.
I have 2 room-mates and one of them pretty much never leaves his room.. sad really.
I suspect a drug problem to go with the obvious alcoholism issues.
Me ? i get my act together..
There is only one way to look.. FORWARD !
And one way to get there.. baby steps LOL
Look after yourself people.
