Looking for someone who can work off a list and knock out repairs, without constant supervision.
Additional pairs of hands are available when necessary.
Have a backlog of repairs and looking for a self-sufficient go-getter. Looking to catch on repairs before winter.

Fairly flexible. Open to working with a couple mechanics part-time, after hours, and weekends as well. Also open to someone who's retired and just looking for a project here-and-there. Being lenient, as long as it moves the backlog of repairs forward.

Currently moving and re-organizing shop.

In the process of adding/creating more totes/bins as new shop is being re-organized.
Prefer you have your own general tools - we have most of what is needed, but are re-organizing and moving between shops, so it'll be a process before things are in their final spots.
