Dest 8: lQBSt0l'Elli0l1 Senior Rob Ziobro has found the ideal situation for himself: combining his hobby with a means of earning money for college and other expenses. His hobby is woodworking, and to date he has completed eight scale barns and several doll houses. He works in his basement, spending anywhere from 30 to 130 hours on a project. Rob explains, For years, l've gone on a country walk with my family every weekend, and after so many years of seeing old barns out there, something just had to wear off. So about four years ago, I started my first barn, and since then, it's become an occupation. There is no doubt that it is a highly profitable hobby, his last barn, built for a total cost of 31.98, has already received bids for over S300. Even when labor is included, Rob still makes a fair profit. Flob's hobby has found other very practical applications, too. For over a year, he worked at restoring an old barn in the Brookfield area, and as he says, lt was a fantastic job, because l could work my own hours and I was my own boss. He has also been able to incorporate his hobby into his Science Fair projects. Last year's project, which dealt wit barn brace strengths, won a secon place ribbon at the Southeastern Wis consin Science and Engineering Fai and also several other awards of casl and dinners. In conclusion, Rob remarks, lt's a great situation for me, because it nevel really seems like work, since it's some thing I enjoy so much. For those wh can, using your hobby for financi advancement is an excellent experil ence.
