How adept are you, mechanically?

I'm between 4 and 5 :) But I'm confident about climbing up the scale the moment I gain more than 20 hours operating a lawn mower.
 
Guess I'd have to be a 5... now that I've joined this forum, I'm sure I'll make it to level 10 in no time. Looking forward to chatting with you all...

WELCOME TO LMF, heck, had I known I could have been an instant "10" upon joining, I would have done it sooner...:laughing:
 
I would have to say I am about a 3, I am still learning and hope to someday be able to do all my own repairs.

Only one way to learn, and that is by watching someone do it, or doing it yourself. The great thing about doing it yourself, if you do it right you gain experience and confidence that you can learn more. The bad thing about doing it yourself, if you (bleep) up, you can't blame it on anyone else.

Yes, despite my current abilities, I bleeped up my share of times working on things. Don't ask, because I will not tell.
 
I guess I would put myself at a solid 5. Really good in some areas but poor in others. And I agree manuals are a big plus, but come short on some things. Manuals translated from another language can be really challenging.:biggrin: Dusty
 
I would say I am about a 5 as well. Some things I can do well without help and others I have to hire to get done because I am scared I will screw it up.
 
I would rather not discuss it. I think I am probably more negative than positive. Everything I have tried to do I have always ended up making worse, it infuriates me.
