@jesusredeemedme2425 I'm flattered, thanks...

  • wooden things: canes, tables, squirrel feeders
  • small clay vessels (I made a smoker's pipe two years ago)
  • fairly good realistic illustrations, mostly of women
  • fast impressionistic ink paintings
  • flat & round braids, mostly from hemp twine
  • relaxation (in female upper back muscles)
  • kebabs, with my grill

How does a squirrel feeder differ from a bird feeder, in structure?

How did you learn all these cool skills?? <3

Well let's see... I take after my dad who was as they say "Jack of all trades, master of none" 😁 and tought me most of what I know.

- Decks, Fences, have built a few in my time

- Framing, torn down some walls and rebuilt a few.

- Electrical,  have been known to run wiring for lighting, outlets, sub-panel

- Laid flooring,  hardwood, laminated, tiles, heated flooring.

- Complete Bathroom renos, a few in my time.

- I like to tinker with cars as well but they have to be built prior to 1986 (before computers were introduced into cars) this is my place of solice, where I can be at peace with myself. 

- built a heavy duty woodworkers bench


There's probably more but all I can think k of for now. 😊🤗

Maybe, but I am very much a loaner and too big an introvert to carry a convo in real life.

@jesusredeemedme2425 Am probably not as introverted as @QuietByNature --in some of my past jobs I had to deal with the public, so as a necessity I had to talk to people--but as a rule, I do prefer to just work on something without having to constantly carry on a convo. Depending on the project, Quiet here might have to tell me what to do. Have worked with electrical stuff on one job, but that was yeeaaarrrrs ago...I barely recall any of it.
