This article was one of the firs

I have been fixing things in people houses and offices for over 20 years. This article was one of the first ones written about me in Canada and since then there has been over 30 0f them. It is not because I can "Razel Dazel"

the public with amazing service but I also know what I am going.

One Article after the next, then the odd presentation and I put the world of construction on the map

I started to release the pressures of being a "handyman Celebrity" by going on the bike paths where the media could not go and ride things I designed But that didn't matter, they caught up with me when I eventually had to ride on the road.

Doing business on line, the Hungarian TV Interviewed me about doing business on the net. I basically said that, The net is an amazing place. You can find a part that you need for you car and then eavery one from everywhere tells you that they have the part you are looking for. That is the best translation I can give you.

Budapest, Hungary

But no matter where I went...... Like here in the Washington post in Washington DC

When I designed the next thing. I was cycling so much I needed an easier way to carry my bikes, hence, I invented the handy-hoist. and started selling them. no media was really interested until Canadian Tire ordered 15,000 units, but my mom got really sick and I had to walk away from the deal.

Then my small business software started taking off then then one very big company wanted to buy me out.

My software business WAS TAKING OFF AND THOSE IT WAS A GOOD PRODUCT, NOT BECAUSE i DESIGNED IT, BUT BECAUSE MY CUSTOMERS LOVED MEW FOR IT BECAUSE IT WAS EASY TO USE, IT HELPED TO FORCE ME INTO THE LIME LIGHT. A PLACE WHERE i DIDN'T REALLY LIKE TO BE. I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND THAT I WAS A CELEBRITY NOW AND ANYTHING I DID THEY WOULD WRITE ABOUT.

I have since partnered with another company because I could not trust Cisco and now I I will have something pretty amazing. It will be the coolest thing I have even been involved with with if we all don't go bankrupt first, This year had been the slowest in the history of my business. I don't even have a business anymore, it feels more like a hobby. I may end up doing something completely different if someone offers me a job I cannot refuse.

One day I wanted to buys some plates. It used to be that I would walk into a store and everyone wanted to serve me like I was really a somebody. You have to understand in my mind I would have been very happy to be a nobody and after the last, or so I thought, article was written about me I know what I had to do. I tried to drop off the scene, as Holmes was gaining more strength in the public eye and many started watching his stupid shows, I was so happy that the mass went and followed him. I even stopped going out so the media could follow me around.

sometimes I say to someone I AM LES THE HANDYMAN I know what I am taking about and they say LES WHO??? haheheheeh

Because I like designing and building things and because I already have designed some very cool things the media was always there to write about whatever I was working on. Including my handy-hoist but what I should have done and just stuck to Les the Handyman.

About 5 years ago at the peak of my game I decided that I needed a woman in my life.

And so I created a cool web site to help me with the selection process and and I was going to Advertise in the Globe and mail and The Star because I wanted a women with a brain, who liked to have fun and perhaps also liked construction too. I think as much as I tried to hide what was going on, the diligent media was there "sniffing out" another story about me.

I included it here because I just want to show you that just about everything I have created did well except for finding a woman that got screwed up somehow. Perhaps that every time I went out people were looking at us. Now after 4 years people have finally forgotten about this article and I can try to get back to my life. I even had my own paparazzi and have no interest in going back to that life.

When people say " I never heard of you I just shake my head and think to myself "Where have you been???." And in a way I am relieved.

Designed and modified three compound mitre saw TABLES which were not very good

by themselves and Assembled a new one using only the best components

of each, to come up with the worlds best compound, miter saw table.

Since the completion of this one I added a battery charging station and a vacuum dust extractor (they still cannot design a saw that does not clog the waste port. Even my $ 1700.00 MaKita which is the best saw on the Market.)

seen below.

more efficient and to save time and money for their customers too? Not any, I think

If you want some kind of a tool made that does not exist yet. I would love do it

I could not improve the light that came with the table much but it uses a bulb which can break, so I found another product and Led light that burns brighter and does not brake so I always have light if it gets dark and I can finish cutting the wood safely for a job I am working on. The Foldable pail on the right is for small pieces of scrap wood. It is faster tho throw the wood into it then then throw it out than to pick it all up at the end of the day. These little things save lots of time and I do it all for my customers.

Last year I thought I would build something that would run entirely on the sun. It was very cool and they wrote about it because I wanted to show it to them and the world. It was a great full page article like all the rest. I was even opposite another person

It was on three TV stations and I didn't even get one call to do something with it like get more of them and deliver pizzas with the, or build them to transport goods from one end of a factory to another. Or carry luggage for tourists at any hotels which had cabins. I tried finding companies who were interested and realized that were were already in the recession

I stopped inventing things, took the unit apart and sold it all for 1/4 my cost.
