Hobby Pulse: Keeping your finger on the pulse of what is going on in the hobby world.
We've been switching between using "Hobby Pulse" or "Hobby Wire" for our Hobby News & Updates site, and we've decided to go with Hobby Wire for the on-line version. This site will be a brief index if information, although we are considering using this for our "in print" version, for local fliers since "wire" is more of an on-line/interactive image.
PUGDOG Enterprises, Inc. ® and other local shops and groups, are
working to bring a new exciting hobby environment to Pittsburgh.
This includes classic crafts like beading, paper crafts, origami, macrame, wood working, dollhouses, model building, model railroading and more. Too much emphasis has been put on the "new hobbies" like RC Autos, which do not really foster the classic hobby ideals of relaxation, non-competition, team work, and skills building. Sports, and competitions, are not really "hobbies", they are activities.
Coming soon! For now, please visit the PittsburghHobbyForums.com for ideas and things to do with your kids, family, friends or just by yourself.

We are starting to figure out what we are doing with this site (and a few others).
Keep an eye peeled, and check the other sites listed. HobbyWire.com and PittsburghHobbies.com will be the two main sites.
