I have been doing this YouTube thing for 10+ years, I enjoy showing people how to fix things so I decided to start a YouTube channel. Most of the things I fix and install you can do at home yourself. I actually enjoy it when you guys leave comments and feedback to let me know you're getting something out of this channel.

Hopefully, you have already subscribed if you haven't already done so make sure you do it right now. My background is in construction and I have been installing things from shower doors to bath hardware to entry doors and a lot of other things.

Here lately I have been infatuated with plants, my channel is taking a small turn towards plant life and growing things. If there's anything you want to see me install please leave a comment and I would do everything in my power to create a video. Once again make sure you subscribe and watch all my videos thank you.

My history and where it all started. When I was 10 years old my father would buy me my brother David and my brother Emanuel an ax for our birthdays. So I have been doing some type of hard work my whole life. Imagine 3 - 10-year-old boys in the backyard with chainsaws and an ax cutting wood until noon just about every Saturday. Hard work has been a strong action in my life for a long time.
