You asked.

You are lined up on final for a landing at disaster airport. You want to
give someone poor instructions (pencil on paper, worse), have them guess
as to what you really want (high quality), order your parts for you
(smaller stuff) and presumably give you the box you need on time as a
part time activity, in between more important stuff.

If you need a box that does something, write a spec with deliverables
and a date and have somebody as good as you are do the project managment
to get you what you need.

Trying to run a tech not in your firm is not a good use of your
resources. If you need more hands, hire a temp that you can look over
the shoulder of twice a day.
