yes to a point. I can change out light fixtures, bathroom fans, do simple plumbing repairs, household repairs, etc. I can also operate a sewing machine/serger/etc. like a champ.

Beyond that it really just depends on what it is. I used to be able to do simple car maintenance- change the oil, change spark plugs, stuff like that, but now I don't mess with any of that. Could still change a tire if needed but yeah the rest I will just get done.

So I took the old G110 apart for its semi-regular cleaning and ended up with a screw left over, lol. Considering there are like three dozen screws in the bastard I don't think this one will be missed. tongue

I will always try to fix something myself. If it somehow ends up being a bigger job than I thought, I call my dad, or my son's dad if it involves crawling under the house.

Most things around the house I'm not afraid to tackle, troubleshoot, repair, or replace. Doing something a little bigger is daunting, but not impossible: replacing the flooring in the kitchen with hardwood, replacing the bathroom tile, etc.

Building computers, and most things electrical is fine - I have some good Navy training in electronics and some good troubleshooting skills because of doing that for several years. I've built over a dozen computers from scratch and upgraded tons of times.

Automobiles, however, are another story. I'd love a classic ('65 or '66) Mustang, but I wouldn't know how to rebuild a carburetor to save my life, nor could I pound out/Bondo a dent. In fact, I've got a 2001 Chevy Cavalier Z24 that has a flashing check engine light and while the code reader says "Misfire detected" I don't know what else I can do to fix it. I've already replaced the spark plugs, no help.

I could, however, read up on how to replace a front door, and do it, if needed. tongue

Originally trained as an electronics technician so very comfortable around that type of thing. Picked up a lot of electrician skills along the way so comfortable with that also. Raised by a dad that was extremely handy around construction type work (and took me along when old enough) and was an avid carpenter by hobby so I picked up a little of that. I am pretty confident around most types of projects and if I can't figure it out and fix it, I probably have a friend that can.

I am a jack of all trades. I can do just about everything I set my mind to as long as you wanted average standards. If you want above average i'll do some research and get it done. I can sew, cook, do plumbing, electrical work, house hold repair, car repair, and make a hell of a cup of coffee.

Never figured out love though.

My grandfather was an automechanic, both my dad and uncle can pretty much fix/do anything (those two alone built my uncle's house), and we're all pretty natural when it comes to those sorts of things. My grandmother is an excellent seamstress.

Runs in the family, I guess. happy

yes, I've done plumbing stuff like installing new PVP pipes and pumps to copper pipes to pulling and installing engines or tranny to any type of carpentry. I'll do minor electric but I think the majority is best left to licensed people for safety and insurance reasons.

Can't say I've really sewed anything though.

About as far as I've gone in Automotive is replacing suspension parts in my Audi, I'd not be comfortable doing more than that without either a good guide or a buddy helping me out.
Computers, np.
The others if I had a guide I could probably do all the basic stuff.

Yes I can build you a house from foundation up, rebuild a motor, to having a green thumb, plus hunting and fishing stuff...... thanks dad

The navy gave me the knowledge on how to trouble shoot,and electrical theory... They also thought me how to use engineering manuals or prints. If I have those I can fix pretty much anything.

So yeah I can do it big or small, plus I have been blessed with the ability to learn and absorb info really quick, it only takes me once or twice watching something done to learn it.
