Imagine having a mentor with 35 years practical experience…

What would you do?

This is not a regular ‘step-by-step’ DIY manual; instead it’s a little different.

It’s a collection of real observations taken from the daily work of a professional builder, carpenter and all-round handyman.

Learn to see the physical world through ‘practical eyes’ like the author, learning a little more each day.

Read these easy to follow tips, tricks and techniques and then apply them to your own DIY projects.

The book aims to inspire, encourage, and motivate you to build up your DIY skills, no matter where you’re starting from.

Save money using your own head, hands, and heart to create something wonderful, fix something you treasure, maintain something you want to keep forever or build something just for fun.

Give your DIY skills a boost today…

AUTHORS NOTE: This book takes all the actionable tips from my 450 page book ‘How to be Handy’ and distils them into an easier to read two column/A4 format. A lighter read if you like. If you’ve been kind enough to buy the ‘big’ book, please don’t buy this one as you’ll already have these tips!

Stay well
