Are you any good at DIY?

From screwing in screws, using drills, sawing things in half, painting etc.... do you ever do any DIY? I have done bits and I am better at it now and I really want to make some things for the garden out of wood once I have a job so that'll be interesting whether I am any good at it or not. I painted the front door too last time which was my first time properly painting something other than a fence.

How about you?

I dont know if I'm any good but I kinda like it and it usually turns out well

I really do like having a good set of tools though

I'm good at putting stuff together if I ever bother to but it seems like effort and I have no real desire to do it most of the time, so my DIY exploits are usually limited to just fixing stuff that's fallen apart or whatever

Inseriousity.

hahahahahahahaha no absolutely not.
It was the running joke in technology that I would screw everything up and it was pretty accurate.

No definitely not. I honestly rely on @pasta; for all the diy and he honestly does a great job at making stuff and fixing stuff

My dad wouldn't really let me help out, we used to always offer to paint, but he told us no. Also, I don't think he'd trust me with putting screws or anything in seeing as I poked holes in the wall with screw drivers, and stuck pins in the wood on my old bed.

I'm actually alright at it when I put my mind to it, just a bit slow as I'll triple check something so it doesn't break or whatever.

I am really good at DIY. Redecorated the entire house, put a shed up, yeah in general I am pretty good. If I ever need help then I ask my dad to tell me how to do something then I attempt it, if I then still can't do it then I get help. Best way to learn for me.
