    There is a huge difference between Making for money and Making for the simple Love of doing it. The word Hobbiest has been shamed into the current definition of amateur / unskilled / etc. However imho the True Hobbiest drives Spirit forward whereas the professional unintentionally holds the Spirit back. The Professional has to conform but the True Hobbiest is totally Free to Experiment and let the metal go where it wants to go. Becoming one with the metal. So to speak !

    • @HotRodHippie
      @HotRodHippie  5 років тому +1

      If you have great customers you get to experiment as a professional as well. Or if you truly have a passion for the work you will experiment on your own time and dime and apply those skills to customer work.
      I fully get what you are saying and I'm not arguing, just saying it isn't always the case.
      Thinking outside the box is great but sometimes I find people the idea that's outside the box, wasnt done before for a reason. I have to give hobbyists credit, I see a lot of folks get really creative in ways I'd often not think to. Granted I don't often agree with those ways but it's still neat to see.

      He started that probably before I was making videos. I don't remember for certain though.

    How much power, does a computer need to run cad programs, thanks for vid

    • @HotRodHippie
      @HotRodHippie  2 роки тому

      It really depends on the program and the complexity of the models being created. Most CAD programs are fairly poorly optimized to make use of powerful computers in my opinion. I say that cause I was literally cursing at my computer for being so slow while editing something in CAD.
      I'd recommend downloading Autodesk Fusion 360 and giving it a try. It is the CAD software I use and it is Free to hobbyists and start-up companies. I'm sure they list some hardware requirements somewhere. My hobby is custom computer building so I rarely check minimum specs on anything.

      He wore hearing protection when running the power hammer for us. If you've ever run a Pullmax type machine you'd be surprised how quiet they actually are. I'm not disagreeing with you but I'm usually a stickler about hearing protection and even I don't always wear it when running the Pullmax.

    American definition of fun: things you dont really need

    • @HotRodHippie
      @HotRodHippie  2 роки тому

      Is fun ever a “Need”? You don’t “need” to go to the beach, hiking, etc, but they are fun things to do. How is building things for yourself that would cost you tens of thousands (or hundreds) to buy, not fun? Are you British? Isn’t the stereotype that “a Brit in their shed” builds all the “fun” stuff over there just because they can?
