Very tolerant and understanding partners and/or family. 

15. Community. We're just a bunch of hippies and hippie wannabes.  Groovy, man.

Knowledge

a love for functional art !!! 

ED, I did kind of want to be a hippie.  Never got it done, but still have some of the attitudes.   RTZ, making it and then playing it is hard to beat.

Shared: Used to be a lot of the music people around my area also bicycled a lot - then some of us, ahem, got old and quit.

15.5? Just have to add a "Far Out Man" to that Ed! Nothing wrong with old guys having fun making their own cigar box guitars and trying to learn how to play them. The continuing education and experimenting of this group keeps it interesting and there are always new ideas on how to build that help spawn...(did I just say "spawn"?) new concepts into my warped mind.

Life is good on the lunatic fringe and it's amazing when you can find others whose minds warp in the same directions.

 It's just so cool to be unique...you know, just like everybody else here ;)

That & the fact we probably all share{in one way or another} the 'Rules R4 Fools' philosophy..........

Quite happy I found this place, and more-so now, knowing there isn't going to be any fruitcake shortages lol

I know! Fruitcake STOMPBOXES!!!  o)

I think I know a Fruitcake Stompbox too!

And Donuts...we must have Donuts! :)>

#18 Tunings    Whats the best way to attach a piezo to a fruitcake stompbox.
