I'm taking the piss out of you a bit, OLB. I actually admire people that are handy. I am a handy person myself and come from a long line of handy people. I just had to tease you for the blatantly obvious humble brag that is this thread.

Fuck... I don't know. Might as well go kill myself.

LOL.

I'm pretty mechanically inclined myself, but I choose not to do a lot of things. I know how to put a roof on a house as well, but you're not going to see me up on my roof re-shingling or doing a tear off. No thanks.

I don't necessarily admire handy people... but I guess I get it. To some, they'd rather spend the time than the money. I'm the opposite. No biggie.

Refrigerator
Laptop
Stove
Garage door
House (painting, drywall, lighting, electrical, etc.)
Television
Clocks
Phone
Shoes
Clothing
Microwave
Coffee maker
Lawn mower

I mean, if you want to live a life where you work on everything you own, then cool. More power to you. To me, if you're at the point where you're doing all of your own repairs/maintenance on everything listed above, you might as well go live in the woods and live off the land. Personally, even though I know how to change my oil, I'd rather go pay the $20-40 to have someone else do it. My time is more valuable than that $20-40, as I'd rather spend that 30 - 45 minutes reading a good book in the waiting area or making phone calls or checking emails.

Different strokes.

My current hobby project is to make a functional replica of the Antikythera mechanism.  Does that count?


Naughty

ABSOLUTELY!
If you're frightened of dying, and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the Earth.
