ShyWorks is Chris’s one-person workshop, presenting four live projects: back-office software for trading-card sellers, a community help site, a fastener-grade reference, and a card shop.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-07 issue.

For: TCG sellers and collectors, plus fastener buyers
Worth noticing: SellerCache takes packing slips from TCGplayer, eBay, and ManaPool, or syncs from TCGTracking, to show a “true net.”

Field notes

Chris says his day job is in the fastener industry and that he runs Lucky Nerd, a Pokémon and Magic shop selling on TCGplayer, eBay, ManaPool, and Misprint. The homepage connects that experience to the tools on the shelf, including a fastener reference covering SAE J429 and ASTM grades. It also identifies tcgt.help as unaffiliated with TCGTracking.
