Yeah, I've got nothing against DIY people (I actually have a kind of sneaking admiration for them).

My own father was one of those annoyingly competent people who could fix or build virtually anything.  Fortunately, he also knew his limitations and wasn't shy about calling in professionals (usually vets) as needed.
