Engineers are really sought-after professionals nowadays. Whether they do home or auto repairs, electricity, architecture, or civil engineering, there were over 62 million engineers working in the U.S. in 2022, with the industry projected to continue growing significantly up to 2033.

But, just as not all heroes wear capes, not all engineers are professionals. Some just like to dabble in redneck engineeringand share their creations on the dedicated subreddit. Who else if not Redneck Engineers would make a guitar out of a road sign or a Cybertruck out of metal siding? Scroll down to see these and more inventions folks have shared in the “Redneck Engineering” group!

#59 How My BF Lifted The Washing Machine Onto The Table He Built For Our Laundry Room

He literally drilled into the ceiling just to have something to secure the ratchet straps to the washing machine as he attempted to lift it onto the table with a hydraulic jack (unfortunately I didn’t get a picture of the wooden frame he built, carefully crafted to have a “jack point”, and the wood was ratchet strapped to the bottom of the washer as he jacked it up.
After seeing the washer swinging around a bit, I brought in the paver bricks from the backyard to help with stability after the washer was swinging a bit too much to jack it any higher up.
I was so stressed out about the swinging washer that I walked away after snapping the pic (to send to a friend begging them to come over and bring their bf to help with this washing machine lifting) and came back a few minutes later to see the washer was up on the table he built.
I’m just glad he figured it out because we had no washer or dryer for almost a month after the custom table was built and put in the laundry room, but we couldn’t figure out how to get it the f**k up there!

#82 Here’s A Backyard Gate Indicator Light I Set Up In 10 Minutes With Parts I Had Laying Around

t’s hard to make sure the gate is closed before letting the dogs outside, especially when it’s dark, so I made this. It’s powered by a 5V adapter connected to an outlet on the back of my house, conveniently located between the back door and the gate.
