Newcastle-under-Lyme · Staffordshire, UK
Hire yard by day. Software engineer by craft.
I run Newcastle Tool Hire (Just Tool Hire) on the ground, then engineer production mobile apps and trade platforms — Reckon (smart precision calculator), Trolley (supermarket aisle organiser & budget ring), Bjango (cinematic bullet-time western), live 90-ball party bingo, asset registers, and live transit pricing engines.
Reckon
The all-in-one smart precision calculator engineered for UK trades, DIYers, finance, and everyday life. Clean 3D neon UI, instant offline calculations, zero bloat, and tailored for fast one-handed jobsite and van use.
Trolley
Smart supermarket shopping list engineered to walk the aisles once. Real-time grocery budget ring, automatic aisle grouping, dietary & allergy filters, haptic feedback, and in-store screen wake lock so your phone never sleeps while pushing your trolley.
Bjango: Gritty Western
A cinematic one-thumb western arcade shooter. Hold the glass. Time crawls into bullet time. Drag the gold trajectory line onto skillets, hanging pans, barrels, or tin signs, let go, and watch the slug ricochet around cover into outlaws.
Bingo: 90-Ball Party
Authentic British 90-ball live bingo for family nights, pubs, and parties of up to 24 people. The host runs the caller board on Android; friends join in seconds simply by scanning the QR code from any phone browser. No real-money gambling, pure social fun.
All Shipped Projects & Systems
From commercial tool-hire platforms and asset tracking to custom WebGL game engines. Real code, deployed and serving real users.
