OP 'Slids, tsuwm, what is that thing? (Cheval link from your page) It looks as if Gaudí tried to build a wat out of sea-shells.
Back to my original question, however - can bricoleur be used in the way I suggested, or am I slightly off, as I turned out to be in my grasp of the pathetic fallacy? You say that your definition is after the literal French for handyman, but I think my definition fits better with that - because it means someone who's handy.
Oh - for those quietly picking nits in the back of the class - it turns out bricoleur was yesterday's wwftd, as degringolade arrived while I was writing my post.
