HAPPY HOBBIES

This Christmas, ask Santa to bring you all the tech you need to make 2020 your most creative, hobby-filled year yet

FERTI GAMES CROKINOLE 65

Crokinole is a game of flicking discs to try to knock your opponents’ pieces out of the central scoring area. Easy to understand, tough to master and unstoppably fun – this is like having a pool table, except it fits on your dining table. You can play in teams, too. £65, ferti-games.com

ROLI LUMI

Learn how to play and make music with Roli’s incredibly beautiful, fully illuminated keyboard that’s beginner-friendly enough for newcomers, but offers plenty of features to keep pro music-makers and songwriters happy. It’s small enough to sit on your table. £195, roli.com

DJI OSMO POCKET

Shaky videos be damned – the Osmo Pocket’s 3-axis gimbal turns even the shakiest hand into a master camera operator, and arguably does a better job than any in-camera software stabilisation. Active tracking means it’s great for selfies, too.

£329, dji.com

BOSCH PSR SELECT

Bosch’s next-gen take on the long-respected PSR Select, which stores 12 different bits on board, lets you charge its lithium-ion battery via USB, meaning DIY enthusiasts will never be without the ability to tighten up to 90 screws, pronto!

Every creative pursuit gets a little easier with a rotary tool on hand. Dial it up and this can hit an astonishing 20,000rpm, and it’s perfect for polishing, grinding, engraving and cutting all sorts of small things.
