It's been a minute since I've patched up any pieces, parts, or pantaloons. Should the Tinker return? Asking for a friend...

Coming to fix fallen tiers, cried tears, or ripped tears!

Tupelo Con is a multi-genre convention local to Tupelo, MS. Having started its first year in 2016 it has developed into a convention the city can be proud of! We look forward to continuing to grow and put on the best show we can!

I'll be joining this bunch of wonderful miscreants at the Tupelo Comic Con April 1 & 2 this year! Very excited. You may even see a good friend of mine, Murdoch Strongarm make an appearance, you never know.

Looks like SPWF won't be happening for the Tinker. He'll be staying a little closer to home this year. Tupelo Comic-con here I come!

Time to come out of hibernation!! SPWF is only a few months away, and it's time to start gearing up for a great Fair! Already in the works is an amazing opportunity for me and you, in The Tinker's Trinket Swap! Now we've only applied for it so far, but this is a 5th year tradition at SPWF we fully expect to continue. Who's we you ask? Your friendly neighborhood Tinker Benjamin J., our good friend Liss Allen, and a couple of new friends as well.

In my other LIfe I use Autodesk Autocad for a lot of things. Lately I'm using it as fodder for a blog. It crashes all the time, then asks for details. So I've been giving them more creative responses. Please look, comment, spread! Especially if you've used Autodesk products like Maya or Inventor and found them a little buggy. http://www.cadbash.blogspot.com

Remember! When you're feeling ragged, bedraggled, deflated, or kerflummoxed, find the Tinker! I'll unragg, dedraggle, enflate, and deflummox you if ever I can!

Come see mee!! Bring mending, things for unbending, sagging faces, even untied laces. Or you could just say hello, I'm a very nice fellow!

A Steampunk Haiku

The Tinker will travel
To join the Steampunk World's Fair
And to fix brokens

01/07/2016

We'll be researching the possibility of Steampunk World's fair again this year, so keep an eye out for your favorite wandering repairman!

The Tinker is coming, and he'll help you out
If your costume is falling, then send him a shout!
For costume tears, cried tears, or fallen tiers
He fixes the brokens and mends up teddy bears!

Find him wandering or send word through the vine
But don't leave your fun to do your own mending
Benjamin J. loves to sew, glue, rivet, and pin
He keeps all the goodies to put it together again.
