What is your "inexpensive" hobby that turned out to be expensive/ you gradually invested lots of money into? - eviltoast

Edit: so it turns out that every hobby can be expensive if you do it long enough.

Also I love how you talk about your hobby as some addicts.

    I have a cast iron pan, but it is more about the refurbishing proces. I want to try relining it with tin.

    From my understanding about them it is generally safe when you have intact lining.

      Oh… Yeah… Good luck getting it to keep that lining.

      If you want to do it for just the experience go ahead but also still don’t cook with it.

      Tin sucks. Like straight up. Super soft. Scratches easy. Melts easy. It’s not nonstick and things will stick to it and the act of scrubbing it will potentially strip the tin off and make you get to enjoy relining it again, and again, and again, and again and…

      Copper is pretty, but you’d have to really put a gun to my head to make me want to cook with it ever
