RE: Learn to fisx up?

Author: ron b  Date:   2001-11-23 08:41 A metal Noblet, in my opinion, would be an ideal fixer-upper for an aspiring do-it-yourselfer :] How much fixin' you intend to do would determine which kinds of tools and supplies you might need for starters. Ferree's (a Sneezy sponsor) has just about everything you'd need to get you going. There are some things you can get from other sources for less money but, to start off, you're probably better off getting your supplies from a one-stop-shop like Ferree's. Personally, I don't hold a high regard for manuals for learning purposes. If you feel you must have one, Ferree's sells Erick Brand's for around twenty dollars (U.S.) If you need more input or feedback (you will or run into a real problem (no better way to learn, post here or contact other 'fixers' offline and post your results here later. Keep in mind that posting here allows others to benefit from your experience and the exchange of information is what we're about. If you could let us know what you want to do first, I'm sure some of us would be happy to suggest tools and supplies and tips on how to do the job. Better yet, if you know a 'practicing' repair technician who would be willing to spend some time (offer to pay for 'lessons' showing you the correct way to do some procedures it would be well worth the investment. In the long run it will save you time, money and spare you the frustration and discouragement of repeated trial and error.
