Where did you learn them. Do you have any or would you admit to not having any here.
I was raised on a farm and my Dad was (still is) a carpenter . He taught me how to "fix" things and how to build things but mechanical skills were not his strong suit. He would sooner consult his brother who was a John Deere dealer when the tractors needed work.
After 60+ years I have decided there are basically three types of guys:
1. guys that CAN fix things
2. guys that CAN build things
3. guys that can NOT do either and will not even try
When I try to fix my tractors, I know what my skill set is, but that does not usually stop me (sometimes it should have) .
Some guys are real pros, able to teach and share their knowledge, some are not. How are your mechanical skills?
