Do you all have any tips on activities to do yourself, instead of consuming content all the time?
I'm pretty sick of my content addiction, like watching youtube or netflix all the time. I would rather be spending my time otherwise so figured fun things are the best to start. Do you have tips for fun things to do? Or how I could search for them?
Whittling seemed like something I could do indoors more easily without too much mess. We have a furnace and a giant woodpile so you'd think it'd be perfect, problem is when I try to carve something it's too seasoned* to do much more than carve the bark off. Probably doesn't help that I'm using a gas station knife, but it's probably the wood itself being most of the issue.
I usually had luck with the rotary tool (probably because I usually don't need to get rid of too much material), but once I tried to use the angle grinder with a cheap toothy power-carving disk on a small-ish log and I could barely put a small bevel on it.
*= Requested for carving even, not just something I picked out.
