I always find myself involved in some project or another, whether it be working on a car, building or repairing something around the house, or something else.  I'm a big proponent of the "do-it-yourself" mentality, which I got from my Dad.  My philosophy is "why pay someone else to do something that I can do myself?"   I really enjoy doing my own work, and I find that it not only saves me money, but I also learn a lot in the process and enjoy most of the projects I get into.

I do most of my own auto work (sometimes with help from Dad), from replacing brakes to body work to more involved engine work. 

Here are some links to pages about some of my more recent "major" projects:
