The moment it works again. Find the people doing teardowns, hunting parts, and posting the first start-up video.
Restorers share a specific joy: the thing runs again. Tell Peachy you're into old cars, hand planes, or dead radios, and teardown threads and parts leads surface for you. The day someone near you lists a box of vintage tools, your phone buzzes before the box is gone.
Berkeley packs a remarkable number of scenes into a few square miles. Tell Peachy you're looking in Berkeley and posts from people nearby surface for you, whether they're up in the hills, down by the marina, or a few blocks off Shattuck. The rest of the East Bay is one "a little farther" away.
You tell Peachy what you’re looking for the way you’d tell a friend, and the posts that match reach you.
“Show me restoration projects: cars, tools, furniture, anything.”
“Buzz me when vintage tools turn up for sale near Berkeley.”
“Rust removal and refinishing questions, send them all my way.”
Sign up with your phone number. Peachy is a chat app: your people, your group chats, and one open Public space everyone shares.
Plain words, like the examples above, place included. You can change your mind any time. Just tell it.
Matching posts surface for you, and only what you asked to be buzzed for buzzes. Everything else quietly waits, sorted on time and topic, never deleted.
