Tim Walsh

Founder & Chief Maker
I'm Tim Walsh, the passionate maker behind the scenes, dedicated to sharing my love for creating and teaching.

From a young age, I've been driven by an insatiable curiosity and a love for making things. Whether it's crafting dining room tables, multi-layered cakes, pottery, sewing, or diving into electronics, I thrive on the challenge and joy of bringing ideas to life. My journey as a maker has been a lifelong adventure, and I'm thrilled to share it with you.

I hold a BS in Software Engineering and a certification from MIT in Generative AI, which has allowed me to blend technology with creativity in unique and exciting ways. My professional journey includes working with tech giants like Google and Meta, where I honed my skills and gathered invaluable experience.

At the age of 23, I achieved a significant milestone by obtaining my first patent. Since then, I've become a published author and a six-figure entrepreneur, turning my passion into a successful business. My YouTube channel, "How to Make Anything," is a platform where I showcase a diverse range of projects, from intricate woodworking to delectable baking, and everything in between.

Teaching is a core part of my mission. My students often describe my teaching style as extremely engaging and full of energy, which not only makes the learning process enjoyable but also sparks excitement and creativity in others. I believe in the power of hands-on learning and aim to inspire others to explore their own creative potential.

At Classic Tim, you'll find a curated selection of my handcrafted products, each one a testament to my dedication and love for making. I invite you to join me on this creative journey, explore new ideas, and discover the joy of making.

Thank you for being part of the Classic Tim community. Let's create something amazing together!
