Have a broken gadget? I want to resurrect it.

Flexible budgetFlexible; to be agreed, Germany

Looking for repairable gadgets with a fighting chance: audio gear, consoles, unusual electronics, and more. Share symptoms, model, repair history, photos, and asking price. No swollen or damaged batteries. Ideal candidates have a clear fault: a console that won't boot, an amplifier with one dead channel, or a device with a damaged connector. Cosmetic damage is fine. Include what happened before failure and any previous repair attempts. Personal storage should be removed or securely erased before handover.

Open to offersFlexible; to be agreed, Germany

A focused website for your work, portfolio, or next idea. Agree scope, content readiness, design, hosting, and fee first; the 48-hour build window starts after the brief and materials are confirmed. Suggested package: a mobile-friendly site with up to five sections, a portfolio or services area, contact links, basic search metadata, and one revision round. Deliver source files and deployment instructions. Domain and hosting costs are separate; content and images must be ready before the 48-hour window begins.

Looking for a cofounder who loves weird problems

Flexible budgetFlexible; to be agreed, Germany

Seeking a builder who hears an unusual problem and immediately starts sketching. Compare interests, complementary skills, time commitment, and one small trial project before talking equity or grand plans. Start with a two-week collaboration: choose one awkward real-world problem, speak to five potential users, and ship one scrappy test. Interests could include marketplaces, useful AI tools, and neglected business workflows. The goal is to test working chemistry and follow-through before making long-term commitments.

One weekend. Let's build something ridiculous.

Open to offersFlexible; to be agreed, Germany

A tiny arcade machine? An unnecessarily smart plant pot? Looking to turn one wonderfully odd idea into a weekend build. Bring curiosity; agree the project, skills, materials, and schedule together. Suggested format: Friday idea shortlist, Saturday prototype sprint, Sunday demo. Aim for a team of two to four and one working function rather than a moonshot with a logo. Possible builds: a physical focus timer, a tiny reaction game, or a plant-watering dashboard. Split material costs only after choosing the project.

I have a 3D printer. Bring me your impossible ideas.

Open to offersFlexible; to be agreed, Germany

That replacement knob nobody sells. A prototype that currently exists on a napkin. A gloriously unnecessary desk gadget. Bring an idea and dimensions; let's discuss materials, feasibility, and a quote. Project ideas: custom cable guides, board-game inserts, unavailable plastic fittings, and first-pass product prototypes. Send an STL/STEP file or a sketch with measurements. The first step is a printability check, followed by material and finish options; test-fit parts can be revised before a larger batch. Decorative and non-critical parts are the focus.

Borrow my workshop. Build your masterpiece.

Open to offersFlexible; to be agreed, Germany

A place to finally tackle the project that won't fit on the kitchen table. Discuss workspace, available tools, experience, supervision, safety rules, and session costs before booking. Suggested session: a four-hour bench slot for assembly, sanding, repairs, or a small woodworking project. Send a project sketch and tool requirements first so suitability can be checked. Consumables, machine access, induction, protective equipment, and cleanup time should be included in the booking agreement.

I'll digitize your family's old photographs

Open to offersFlexible; to be agreed, Germany

Shoeboxes full of memories deserve a backup. Offering photo digitization with organized files and optional gentle restoration. Discuss volume, resolution, handling, privacy, and return arrangements first. Suggested starter batch: 100 loose prints, scanned at 600 dpi, delivered as numbered JPEGs with a simple folder index. Optional restoration can address fading and small scratches while preserving the original look. Originals stay unaltered; agree secure file delivery, return handling, and deletion of working copies.

I'll turn your old laptop into a home server

Open to offersFlexible; to be agreed, Germany

Give that retired laptop a second career: backups, a media library, or a small home lab. Discuss compatible hardware, setup, security, and a handover you can understand. Scope and price by agreement. A starter setup could include Linux, automatic local backups, a shared folder, and one optional service such as a media library. Deliverables: setup notes, an update checklist, and a walkthrough. Hardware health gets checked first; any data wipe requires approval, and remote access is configured only when needed.

I'll automate the boring part of your business

Open to offersFlexible; to be agreed, Germany

Copy-paste marathons, spreadsheet juggling, repetitive admin: pick one workflow and let's discuss making it run itself. Start with a defined task, permissions, success criteria, and a quote. Good first projects: turning form submissions into tidy records, drafting routine documents, routing enquiries, or generating recurring reports. Suggested pilot: one workflow, one measurable result, a test run on sample data, and a handover guide. Include error alerts and a manual fallback so automation doesn't quietly invent a new problem.

I'll buy your unfinished inventions

Flexible budgetFlexible; to be agreed, Germany

Half-built prototype? Clever mechanism stranded in a drawer? Looking for unfinished inventions with an interesting core. Share photos, what works, what's missing, and your asking price. Especially interested in clever desk tools, small mechanical devices, educational kits, and practical household prototypes. A useful submission includes a short video, a parts list, design files if available, and the single biggest unresolved problem. Ownership of the design and any patent restrictions must be clear before a transfer.

I'll teach you to make your first video game

Open to offersFlexible; to be agreed, Germany

Go from 'I have an idea' to a tiny playable game. Beginner-friendly lessons covering a manageable concept, simple mechanics, and a finished prototype. Discuss tools, session format, pace, and fee. Suggested course: four 90-minute sessions to build a small 2D game with movement, scoring, sound, and a restart screen. Use a beginner-friendly engine such as Godot; keep the first project tiny enough to finish. Finish with editable project files and a playable desktop or browser build, depending on the chosen setup.

Your ugly PowerPoint deserves a glow-up

Open to offersFlexible; to be agreed, Germany

Good ideas deserve better than 47 bullet points and a stretched logo. Offering presentation makeovers with clearer stories, cleaner slides, and visuals that earn their space. Scope and fee by agreement. Suggested starter package: up to 12 slides, a stronger opening, consistent typography, simplified charts, and one revision round. Deliverables: an editable deck plus a PDF, with reusable layouts for future slides. Best for founder pitches, sales stories, and internal presentations; supplied facts and numbers stay intact.

Your abandoned startup deserves a second life

Flexible budgetFlexible; to be agreed, Germany

Got a side project with working code, a few users, or a domain too good to delete? Looking for neglected startups worth reviving. Share what exists, what stalled, and what a handover would include. Ideal fit: a small SaaS, niche directory, browser extension, or useful developer tool with a working demo. A handover should cover the repository, deployment notes, running costs, transferable assets, and any IP or customer obligations. Pre-revenue projects welcome; a clear explanation beats a heroic pitch deck.

Wanted: The strangest thing in your garage

Flexible budgetFlexible; to be agreed, Germany

An obsolete scientific instrument? An inexplicable machine? Something that makes visitors say 'why do you own that?' Looking for unusual objects with a story. Send photos, condition, dimensions, and price. Think vintage lab equipment, mechanical calculators, bizarre musical instruments, or one-off handmade contraptions. The story is half the appeal; include what it did, where it came from, whether it works, and how much space it needs. Legal, safely transferable objects only; bulky items need collection planning.

Seeking a piano with more stories than scratches

Flexible budgetFlexible; to be agreed, Germany

Looking for a characterful piano that still wants to be played. Honest condition matters more than showroom polish. Share its history, tuning and repair needs, dimensions, and collection requirements. Preference: a compact upright with functioning keys and pedals, no obvious structural damage, and a tone worth tuning. Cosmetic wear is welcome; major restoration needs should be disclosed. A short playing video and details of stairs, lift access, and recent tuning would help assess transport and total cost.

Rent my telescope. See Saturn for yourself.

Open to offersFlexible; to be agreed, Germany

Trade another evening of scrolling for a look at the night sky. Telescope rental concept with equipment, deposit, collection, and guidance to be agreed. Viewing depends on weather, location, and planetary visibility. Suggested package: a two-night loan, tripod and basic eyepieces, a daylight setup walkthrough, and a beginner observing checklist. Start with the Moon and bright targets; Saturn is a bonus when conditions cooperate. Agree collection, a refundable deposit, and a weather-rescheduling policy. Never point the telescope at the Sun.

Looking for someone who can teach my dad AI

Flexible budgetFlexible; to be agreed, Germany

Seeking a patient human who can make AI useful without turning dinner into a TED Talk. Practical, beginner-friendly sessions: asking good questions, spotting nonsense, and trying everyday tasks. Suggested format: three relaxed, one-hour sessions, starting with everyday questions and moving to writing help, travel planning, and photo or document explanations. Include a simple take-home cheat sheet and practice spotting unreliable answers. Remote sessions are fine; patience and plain language matter more than certifications.

Share the model, condition, included parts, and price. Particularly interesting: programmable rover kits, compact robot arms, and educational robots with accessible software. Include battery health, charger, controller, SDK availability, and whether factory reset is possible. Missing accessories are workable if disclosed; a short power-on video is useful.

Wanted: A tiny piece of land for a big idea

Flexible budgetFlexible; to be agreed, Germany

Seeking a small plot or an arrangement to use a corner of land for a creative project. Open to discussing permitted uses, access, utilities, duration, and budget before making plans. An initial concept: a removable micro-garden or small outdoor maker retreat on roughly 50–200 square metres. Prefer a short trial arrangement with legal access and a written agreement on permitted use. No construction assumed; water, power, seasonal access, and any restoration obligations should be clear.
