Ranger Paul always has carpentry, plumbing, welding, small engine maintenance, vehicle and tractor maintenance and electrical projects for those with those qualifications (ie: they do that for a living). Please contact Ranger Paul prior to the date you can attend so he can discuss tool and supply needs as he has limited tools and supplies for those projects.
