NAME: James
ROLE: Dad / Worker / Builder
BENCH: Garage, Oregon
STATUS: Building between meetings
I'm a dad. I work a job. I have meetings. And somewhere between dinner and falling asleep on the couch, I build things — solar projects, 3D-printed nonsense, garage HUDs, shelves that took 4× the YouTube estimate.
This Guy Gadgets is what I write down so I don't forget. The wins, the weird mistakes, the gear I actually use. No drop-shipped nonsense. No "best of 2024" filler. Just honest build logs from a guy who builds in the margins of a full life.
If you're a dad with a drill, a worker with a dream, or a dreamer with a soldering iron — this is for you. Pull up a stool. Build something. Even if it's small.
This Guy out. Go make something.
One email when James finishes a build. No hype, no fluff. Just what worked, what broke, and what's worth your money.
