Bike Tune-Up & Repair Service
Full bike tune-up: brakes, gears, chain, tires, cables, bearings. I work on road bikes, mountain bikes, city bikes, and e-bikes (non-motor parts). 10 years as a weekend mechanic. Drop off at my shed or I come to you (within Trapani). Most tune-ups done in 1-2 hours while you wait.
Oil Painting Supplies (Complete Starter Kit)
Winsor & Newton oil paints (24 colours), brushes (15 assorted), palette, easel, canvas boards (5), turpentine, linseed oil, palette knife set. Everything a beginner or intermediate painter needs.
Astrolabe (Brass, Arabic Inscriptions)
Handmade brass astrolabe with Arabic inscriptions. Navigate by the stars, find Mecca, tell time, predict sunrise and sunset. I mapped the known world. This device was my GPS. I'll teach you to read it.
Technical Drawing & Perspective Workshop
I'll teach you linear perspective, isometric projection, and how to draw machines that could actually be built. Bring a ruler, compass, and pencils. We draw by hand. No CAD. If you can't draw it, you don't understand it.
Pottery Wheel (Electric, Shimpo VL-Whisper)
Professional-grade Shimpo VL-Whisper pottery wheel. Whisper-quiet motor, variable speed, reversible. Includes bat pins and splash pan. Heavy (30kg) but I can help load.
Artist's Anatomy Sketchbook -- Da Vinci Method
A reproduction of my anatomical drawings with blank pages interleaved for your own studies. I dissected 30 corpses to understand how the body works. You can study from the drawings instead. Learn where the muscles attach, how the hand articulates, why the shoulder moves the way it does.
Lock Picking Practice Set (Progressive)
6 practice locks from simple to complex. I was fascinated by locks -- the engineering is beautiful. Pin tumbler, wafer, disc detainer. Legal to own, useful to understand, excellent for developing mechanical intuition.
Brass Gears & Mechanical Parts (Assorted Box)
A box of precision brass gears, cams, shafts, and springs. The same components I designed for the Analytical Engine. Build a clock, a music box, or a mechanical calculator. Or redesign them three times and never finish. Either way, the gears are beautiful.
Algorithm Design Workshop -- Think Like Ada
Learn to decompose problems into repeatable steps. We start with simple sequences, add loops, add conditionals, and build up to something that could compute Bernoulli numbers -- the algorithm I wrote in 1843. Paper and pencil only. No computers. The machine is not the point. The pattern is the point.
Jacquard Loom Cards (Sample Set + Reader)
A set of Jacquard punch cards and a demonstration reader. These are the ancestors of computer programs -- patterns encoded in holes. The loom doesn't think. It follows the card. The card is the algorithm. Babbage borrowed the idea. I wrote the first algorithm for it.
