Woodworking and welding are the 2 hobbies I have found that cultivate a programmers mindset.

Both crafts are heavily focused on making jigs and precision. Then as you become better you find ways to improve your speed.

Wood working is a huge craft much like programming. Go watch some videos on https://www.reddit.com/r/woodworkingvideos but be weary its easy to get lost for hours.

If you have money and space think about a table saw and build some jigs for it(its like getting your IDE setup).

If space and moeny are a problem look in to joinery to get started. Hand cutting "dove tails" is extraordinarily gratifying and can be done with minimal investment while you are learning but as you will see the price quickly gose up if you want the best tools.

If you have more specific questions about wood working or welding let me know (PM's are best) I could talk for days.
