One seat.
Two tires.
Part of an air conditioning kit.
Not much really. Expensive hobby.
Backpacking - Either one really swanky sleep system (the full Zenbivy ultralight), or perhaps one crazy expensive ultralight tent like a Durston, or if we’re going budget, an entire setup of basic gear including backpack, tent, cook system, sleeping bag and pad, etc. Everything needed to backpack you could buy for under 1000€ to get started.
Lots and lots of games, either boardgames or digital. Or a better computer.
Either a guitar… or a gpu
A lot of gardening supplies.
A mtg cube; all sleeved in a nice box. Endless replayibility with friends with a few updates every year.
It’s the dream.
A pair of running shoes and the remainder will be blown on physio sessions.
A fuckton of Bionicle parts. Perhaps even enough for a full mask collection, if I find the right people.
… my favorite hobby “this week”
A basic road bike I guess? 😅
2 years of yoga classes.
Or
All of the garden beds, fencing, and good soil I got for the garden.
If you already have a good computer, that much money could outfit an entire home music recording studio with decent gear, especially if you buy good used gear, which is easily available:
A couple of good super-budget guitars from Harley Benton (a Strat clone and a Les Paul clone), for about $300 (new).
A good Yamaha acoustic guitar, $100.
A bass, $75.
An interface, to get the music into the computer, $50.
A basic MIDI controller, $30.
A good electronic keyboard with weighted keys, $100.
Microphone, $75.
Headphones, $50.
Electronic drum machine, $50, or use the pads on the MIDI controller, or voices on the keyboard.
DAW - Reaper is free, and works great.
That’s approximately what I spent on my studio, and everything works great, and sounds terrific…
Entrance and accommodation at a dancing festival.
About three or four fountain pens I’ve been planning to buy some day. Im not attracted to the really expensive a one yet.
An enclosed core XY 3D printer with a material changing system with a built in filament dryer.
The Bambu Lab P1S is a crazy good deal. If you get it with the older AMS that doesn’t do filament drying, it’s only €800.
There are some issues with Bambu Lab and their proprietary nature. But I’ve very much loved my P1S, and while I’ve tinkered with and upgraded it quite a bit, I’ve never NEEDED to the same way I did with older 3D printers (other than standard maintenance).
You can get Prusa’s Core One for a bit over the stated budget, but only if you do the assembly yourself. Which is fun! But you also don’t get the multiple material system included in that price.
A hole in the water you can throw money into
