/Sounds like "kah" (as in "car") + "chah" (as in "chat") + "rreh" + "AHR" (as in "art")/
In Spain, to tinker with gadgets, old appliances, or machines out of pure curiosity, not as a professional. From "cacharro" (a beat-up, low-value object). The hands-on hobby of taking things apart just to understand how they work, adjusting and experimenting with no goal beyond satisfying curiosity.
“Se pasa las tardes cacharreando con ordenadores viejos. (He spends his afternoons tinkering with old computers just to see how they work.)”
“Le gusta cacharrear con el coche los fines de semana. (He loves spending weekends tinkering around with the car.)”

A short person who behaves with an oversized attitude or arrogance. Can also be an affectionate nickname for a small person. The reference to the blue cartoon characters adds immediate humor to the description.
