Equipments and gadgets nowadays have the option for us to assemble or build by ourselves. There are equipments though that are not that easy to assemble even with instructions. What can you and can you not build by yourself?

Hi, Even though I like to design and construct gear (see Oddwatt Audio Sponsored section) and do a lot of diy in audio, I can't seem to drill two holes in a straight line. Wood, plastic, metal ... it doesn't matter. Rolling Eyes I can measure and measure and at least 25% of the time one or more are in the wrong place.

Good Listening
Bruce

I think everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. I'm actually pretty good at things like drilling accurately. When it comes to something complicated electrically though, I usually need some help. I think it's great to learn new things, but I also believe in being aware of my limitations.

My husband has a nasty habit of putting at least one piece on backwards. For instance, on our bookshelves one of the shelves is upside down. Laughing

That is too funny! I had to put a bookshelf thing with doors together for my grandma. The instructions consisted of poorly drawn illustrations and no words. There was a shelf on upside down, and the doors were backwards. I let my uncle fix it all, because I was out of curse words to use! Smile
