Hey there, I’m a busy Software Engineer, Tinkerer and homeowner looking for a part-time helper to lend a hand around my home workshop and garage. I’ve got a mix of projects going on - organizing the shop, working on cars and bikes, building and installing shop furniture, and other hands-on tasks.

- Likes being in a shop or garage setting
- Knows their way around basic tools (or is eager to learn)
- Can take direction but also use common sense and problem-solve

- Is careful enough to not get themselves hurt
The work:
- Organizing tools and shop space - this is the BIG first project
- Helping on car, motorcycle, and mechanical projects (cleaning parts, basic maintenance, etc.)
- Building or installing shop furniture and storage
- General workshop or household projects
- If you have experience with computer hardware, software dev or networking, there are some additional projects that I would consider throwing your way
- Basic cnc and 3d printer maintenance and configuration (firmware updates, lubrication, etc.)
- Assist with Welding and Fabrication

Possibly even some of your projects if you can convince me its interesting :D

Perfect gig for someone handy who likes building, tinkering, and getting things done. College students, folks in trade school, etc are very welcome to apply!
If you’re interested, shoot me a message with a bit about your experience (or just what you like working on). Photos of past projects are a bonus but not required.
