I'm trying to figure out how to get help to get these projects done
Hi everyone here!
I admire your skills. I am a lady with no woodworking skills ( as of now). I'm obsessed with the show Survivor, and I wanted to create some smaller maybe medium? projects like a large size version of labyrinth puzzle maze, sling shot launcher, wooden ring toss type game, flat paddles with a long stick that can balance a ball, Kerplunk game, balance beams, a jail cell door out of wood that needs lock key...maybe more. I was thinking of hosting a game.
I was thinking of hiring someone off of Thumbtack but who do I hire? I figured I'd hire a Woodworker in my area but when I plug Woodworker in my search, all the profiles I get are Carpenters. When I look at all their profiles they are doing all large scale work like cabinetry, tiling, building homes, everything home related and such. I'm baffled that I can't find a beautiful Woodworker on this site, I'm sure they are out here where I live. Is there another website I should be using? Should I hire a Handyman who has the skills? Or any other profession I'm not thinking of? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
