/diy/ - Do It Yourself

ehm, guess op is a trollchild.

But with the benefit of doubt, what kind of things do you want to repair?

>>282131

I don't know, anything, so if we need to repair or build things we wont need to hire someone, so we'll save money

>>282133
You're asking a lot.

Get off your computer and walk your ass down to the local library. Find books on:

>Plumbing
>Woodwork
>Auto maintenance
>Residential electrician certification

It takes WORK to gain the knowledge and skills to properly fix a lot of things that go wrong around a house. That's why professionals exist in the first place.

There isn't room in this thread to try to explain how to diagnose and fix all the problems you might encounter.

How about you wait until an items breaks and then come here and ask us how to fix that.

>>282136

Good idea.

You learn by doing to a large extent. I started fixing things from 5 or 6 years old. Also learn from oldfags you know.

>Granduncle: similar

Lots of my stuff at home I fixed my self.
Start small and move up OP.

>OP's computer filled with datfilename 4chan pictures
>OP claims family is poor
>OP thinks everybody else is just greedy

OP is a lazy sack of shit jacking it to ass pix and blaming others for his self-imposed misfortune. Good job, OP.

Greedy because they keep stealing money from my mom. For example those who are supposed to buy our house are fucking pieces of shit.

and what the hell is wrong with datfilename 4chan pics?

Claims to be poor. Family owns a house.

Troll is a child that wanted a new game system or some such

>Anyone has hints on how to build or repair stuff?

buy a huge hammer. A great big lump hammer and hit stuff with it. That usually works best.
Example: How to repair a TV if it breaks down
get a lump hammer, hit the glass part of it with the lump hammer as hard as you can, several times.
(wear safety goggles)
this will cure all the problems the tv set has

>not understanding economics in Amerikkka

People are poor because they own houses. Mortgages are real bitches. You basically give up all your money to be in the house.

>>282261
its better than giving up all your money to rent a house while earning no equity whatsoever, like millions of people do.

if your family owns a house you're already ahead of the game compared to a huge percentage of a americans.

>>282273

We're 4, and my mom has a nursery, this is how she earns her money ... We have no choice.

You can learn to do anything on Youtube. How to rebuild a truck engine, how to make hand-sewn shoes (that will sell for $100-$3,000 depending on materials and how much you suck at it), how to garden, how to cook, how to repair TVs. Anything. 4Chan will just teach you how to be antisocial and dwell in a basement.

>>282299
what you mean you have no choice?

I'm saying that since your family owns a house, you're already better off than those that don't. Owning is better than renting, you accrue equity.

If you're so worried about money go get a part-time job after school and give money to your mom. Get your younger siblings to go get paper routes or something and give that money to the family as well.

Quit being ghetto scrubs looking for an easy fix, it takes really hard work to get ahead in life. If you don't work hard as fuck you stay poor.
