Apart from this forum, where else do you go for DIY advice?
I’m about to start large project renovating our home. The lion’s share will be done by our builder but I am curious to know my own personal limits when it comes to DIY.
Since we moved in I’ve managed to fit bespoke shelves, plumb a dishwasher, fit a bespoke mounting frame for a baby gate, re-pin floorboards and more. I’m leaving anything structural, electrical or gas related well alone, but so far my next tasks are to rehang two doors, a wooden gate in the garden and the other in the house. I was hoping to get others take on their DIY journey. Apart from this Forum, what other sites or resources have you used to get help or advice? |

I stick to the forums honestly. It's where people with passion go to in order to discuss issues.

I go straight to YouTube. Have been able to do many projects that I wouldn't have dared even trying using YouTube.

I don't have any experience with home DIY however for car stuff and rv stuff I've found facebook groups to be the best. Shit I don't even go to car forums anymore and only come here to talk shit.

I’ve been moving away from the internet and YouTube for info
Been reading books and community colleges have really cool programs to learn stuff. Internet is squirrelly. |
