The Original Mechanic
I like to find and share creative ways to deal with the mechanical problems that are a part of our everyday lives. My training is in electronics and industrial electrical maintenance. And I was an English major in college. So I like to write and I post these procedures first on my website "The Original Mechanic." Then I put together a video version. Most of these videos are vehicle related but I also like to develop creative solutions to common problems many of us face, such as removing a pick-up truck topper or organizing a tool box. My hope is that you can make some use of these videos in solving some of your own problems. Feel free to comment or ask questions. Thanks for watching and I wish you success in your own projects.
