Hello everyone. I've been a lifelong do-it-yourselfer. Designed and drew the blueprints for a 2 story house over a full basement that I'm building myself. Running the electrical, plumbing,etc. right now.

I've also been building my own cars (rebuilding totals) modifications, engines, painting, etc. for the past 39 years.

I've come to this site to get perspectives from others like me. There are a lot of independent jack of all trades in this country. I enjoy reading of your projects.

I've recently retired so I can persue my projects full time.

I plan to post some of my work when I have them more toward completion.

Keep up the good work that you all do!

The house is dried in. At the moment I'm handling my aunt's estate. That's been a load of fun. If you've ever been executor you know what I mean.

I've got three cars waiting to be built. A project reverse trike is in the blueprint stage. I already have the drive train and most of the components. I need to construct the frame.
