I've made this comment here and IRL in the past. Maybe it's just because I personally don't "know a guy for that", but it seems like the "i know a guy for that" guys are becoming a thing of the past. I've DIY'd some things with varying success - refinishing wood floors/tile (good), drywall and moulding (ok), and plumbing (outright disaster). Would be great to have someone that straddles the line between contractor and mentor.

OP to your point I don't know if that exists outside of west philly tool library or big box store classes, but I'll be following along on this thread.
