- Every fall: test-run the heat, a new furnace filter, the outdoor faucets, the gutters and the drafts.
- Freeze or storm forecast: which faucets to drip, holding the temperature, and getting ready for a power cut.

About
I’m not a pro. I just figure things out.
I’m Jeremy, a homeowner on three acres with a workshop, a camper I built from scratch and a long list of projects. I’m a software engineer by day, so I approach every job the same way: research the options, find the smarter way to do it, then show you the whole thing, including what went wrong.
You can do more than you think. The videos are here to show you how: projects, fixes, tool reviews and the mistakes I’ve made so you don’t have to.
Now you know. Go do more yourself.
