Trixed Out Garage
Trixed Out is all about sharing my journey restoring my 1971 VW Super Beetle and odd jobs I do around my house. I have no hands on experience restoring automobiles but I do have a great collection of YouTube gurus who are experts in all this. I call them the GuRoup - Guru Group. I just copy what they do and, so far, it is working out great!
I also invented The Extractor - a drill press dust collection solution. You can learn all about it on my website, www.NelsonsShopSolutions.com. Here's a list to a YouTube playlist regarding The Extractor: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfWxmmE4SP7cSGPvXC_iSCN5Lr5svraM_
The name, Trixed Out, is a play on my nickname, Trix. My actual name is Trish Nelson. I'm a homeowner who loves to fix things myself, a huge lover of all things Classic VW and an elementary school teacher!
