Hobbies and non job related experience
Lots of experience problem solving through working on vehicles for my family and myself. I have been working on vehicles for 4 years and have gone as far as car restoration. Rebuilding engines and suspension components and doing simple jobs like oil changes or brake maintenance. Plenty of home project experience using power tools, hand tools, ladders and scaffolding. Home projects earned me experience with carpentry. These projects include jobs like building decks or replacing deck boards, adding rooms or closets to the house, small electrical jobs, laying pavers, plumbing repairs, replacing flooring, and many various related tasks.
