+1 Did that when I was 15. Great thing to do. I still play, though I'm sure I've forgotten more about playing the guitar that I currently remember.

There is that... however, sometime you just need something for a bit of escape.

'nuff said.
Or....
Have a look on Amazon for a series of books by David Gingery called "Build your own metalworking shop from scrap". It's all about scrounging and making do, so it doesn't cost more than you're prepared to pay
.
I bought the set out of interest, and so far I've made my blast furnace for well under $100,
just working on flasks for sand casting. As for building the lathe, shaper, mill, drill press (I already have one), dividing head and leaf press... that's for when I retire.
Just a suggestion
