I can do pretty much anything I want to do. I teach myself when I want to learn a skill, and then I fix what I need to fix or build what I need to build. My house is filled with books. I used to collect them when I was younger -- now I mostly get them on-line. I've done carpentry, cabinet work, house wiring, plumbing, roofing, framing, concrete and foundation work. I've dug ditches and laid pipe, landscaping, house painting, repointing brickwork, installing windows and doors, building decks, installing water heaters and well pumps. I'm good with a hammer, a saw, and an axe. None of this is what I do for a living, but I've done quite a bit of it over the decades. I've prepared vegetable gardens and built fencing of different kinds. One thing I've never done too much of is automotive repair. I change my own plugs, oil and wheels, and I've run brake lines and changed carburators, but it's not really what I'm good at. I'm better with wood. I do a little sculpting and metal work, just for fun. I even like designing jewelry, not that I ever wear any of it, but I like designing it.
