Nothing beats the feeling of finishing a DIY project with zero prior experience.
I had no idea what I was doing. Just some YouTube videos, a lot of googling, and way too many trips to the hardware store. But after a few mistakes, a bunch of learning, and a couple of “oh no” moments... I actually did it. The project’s done — and it works. I don’t think it’s about saving money (even though that’s a nice bonus). It’s about the confidence boost. Knowing you figured it out yourself, step by step. That’s a different kind of satisfaction. So now I’m hooked. What was your first “I actually built/fixed that!” moment? submitted by /u/Edgeless_SPhere [link] [comments]
