About wes of all trades

Tired of seeing all those seasoned professionals and brilliant tradespeople drawing from bottomless wells of wisdom and experience to produce flawless results, making us common folk look like fools? Then you've come to the right place. Join me, a desk jockey by day, a bumbling DIY'er by night, as I try to build stuff, fix stuff, refurbish/restore stuff, keep cars running, keep plants and animals alive, keep the house and appliances healthy, and more--with no experience or wisdom--all while attempting to raise two kids and keep a wife happy. Each project, riddled with setbacks and delays, is a DIY lesson and/or a life lesson. Come along for the journey from complete noob to...well, less of a noob in a broad variety of trades and skills.
