Hi everyone! I’m Ben, a proud dad, husband, and general contractor based in Ontario, Canada. I’m thrilled to be part of this inspiring community and can’t wait to connect with all of you. The "You Can Build This" call really resonates with me because, as a contractor, I’m passionate about turning ideas into reality and creating spaces that people love. I run Rondeau Homes with my wife, Erica, and together we specialize in custom builds and renovations. You can check out our work at rondeau-homes.ca or follow us on Instagram @rondeauhomes. I’m here to learn, share, and grow alongside all of you. Let’s build something incredible together!

We love hearing about the variety of projects you are all working on. It really gets our creative juices flowing! All too often after hearing of something someone is doing I think to myself "that would be a great project to work on!" What has been your Favorite DIY Project and Why?

I’m Saer — I have a background in cybersecurity, voice AI, and automations. My specialty is building smart automations that save time, cut manual tasks, and help small businesses scale. I joined this group to get guidance on how to help my father-in-law. He’s been doing auto body work for over 20 years and dreams of having his own shop — but he lacks the business mindset to make it real. If you’ve built your own service-based business or know the steps to get started, I’d love to learn from you. As a thank-you, I’m offering 5 free tech projects this month — including landing pages, AI voice agents, or custom automations — to members willing to share advice. Let’s build something great together!

Ill be posting a bunch of my projects, hopefully you'll like them. From serious business, to just fun diy ideas my brain thinks up. Look forward to our conversations and collaboration.

Thanks for having me. Im from Tennessee and want to get into woodworking as a way to reduce burnout from my daily job. Any smaller project ideas to start off would be appreciated.
