How do you spend your time during the lockdown?

That white inlays are reclaimed ivory piano key? They look so good!

Yup, thanks! All done by hand with files and sandpaper

Definitely love it! I even wanna tell RND to try some, reclaim some ivory to make a limited edition. LOL

Is that means you are not boring and exciting right now? XD As a non-native speaker, hope I didn't get it wrong.

Nah. I'm always boring and unexciting.
I think being boring and unexciting is a many generation family tradition.

Careful with that, there's a ton of legal issues involved with selling ivory...especially when it has no provenance like reclaimed piano keys. I only do personal stuff with it, it would be impossible for me to sell or even give away here in the USA.

During the lockdown,... at home ... What did you guy do to spend the time?..

freedom of the resident house cat....

We aren't "locked down" here in Idaho, at least where I live, but I've spent more time at home than I'm used to. I've gotten better at watching TV and sharpening knives, however.

One side done, and about half the nightshift to go...that bottom inlay was damned tricky.

I'm a man of action, yeah, that's the ticket, a man of action...

During the recent unpleasantness, I've watched more TV than I usually do. I managed to binge watch The Sopranos and a few other series I hadn't seen in awhile or at all. While we weren't locked down the way some places were, less was open locally so I hung around our country place more than usual and music/TV/and fooling with knives (and guns) occupied more of my time than it has the last couple of years. I was planning a couple of travels to Oregon, Washington, and Canada this past April and all that got put on hold. So, yeah, I got better at sitting around watching TV and the other things I mentioned.
