I used to repair electric “things” at home when I was in Croatia, or for example to connect electric stove by my own, that’s not a big deal. However here in Germany you are not allowed to do so by to law. You can do it but if there fire appear no matter if by accident and you don’t have a bill from a professional so that you can prove he did the connection it could be that insurance company won’t pay for the damage. That’s how I was advised by relocation agent. 

But I did change the termopasta between the processor and the cooler in my laptop – never did smth. like that before, watching a tutorial on YouTube and it was like two years ago. It stil working without overheating. And I am proud because of that. 

DIY is totally cool to do! Just make sure you’re not going to brake any law doing so.

I haven’t tried much DIY methods to get my things fixed but I think I’ll start doing more of that to save some money. Colombians love DIY activities, they have a lot of initiative and creativity.

Thank you, dear Julito, for your comment. 

As you may already know unemployment is very high in some parts of India. Here, social welfare activists advise the people with reasonable income to help those in need in every possible way.

Except electronics I can fix almost everything in my home. I make a living repairing domestic fixtures, gas range, faucet leaks, toilets and the like , I am capable of doing some simple carpentry and painting, I also can change a light bulb, Jejeje.. I like what our Dear Shoba said about her  father, his is capable of doing himself many odd jobs at home , still he gives the opportunity to local artisans in need of work and a little money to buy food for themselves and their family.

My deceased father was such a kind of a DIY man, He was such a frugal man who hated to spend some dough to hire someone to fix things at home, after messing up many stuffs and home appliances by his DIY he eventually became a pro in this field and sometimes he forced me to give him a hand with his stuffs and as a child I found it so boring to do an adult job but I should showed some respect to the authority and we rolled up our sleeves and engaged in working like dogs and just in middle of the work he used to proudly say “Hey my son look, we just broke the back of the job now and in no time we are finished” and I asked him “All of these works really broke my back, let my go dad, I wanna go and watch my favorite cartoon on TV” and in this time I usually got a slap on the back of my neck then he shouted angrily “OK, go you little spoiled brat, your mom brought you up like this, go and watch your sh*t, I’ll finish it all by my myself”

i have never fixed anything with tutorials but i solve most of my pc problems with internet tutorials and its really easy and trendy.

i feel im professional now

I don’t know I like DIY or not! But I hate to wait to come a professional to fix things, given that most of them are not doing their jobs properly.
So I have to fix and do most of my work by myself! DIY most of the time could be interesting, but the problem is If you want to fix anything you need a lot off tools, on one hand, paying a lot of money to by them; on the other hand, space to keep and classify them is not easy!

However, I have to do them, last night I have to repair a water pump, I have fixed a lot of things like refrigerator, TV, computer, blender, printer, fan, car, etc and I sometimes need to do plumbing, welding, painting and masonry. Now I think I hate DIY!

I’m all fingers and thumbs when it comes to fixing things around the house. But since my husband is a great DIYer I don’t worry that much about it. 

In my hometown unemployed youth go from door to door asking for handyman jobs to make a living. Some of them are really skilled and my father gives them a chance even though he is a good handyman himself.
