The first wheelchair ramp I built did not pass the test when I got on it to try & go up it with the spare wheelchair my relative loaned me for the project.
I got a little too arrogant about my DIY skills over the past year. I got actually gleeful for all of these new hobbies that I was starting between all of the woodlaboring unit & then the metal laboring unit I bought later on. I was posting all of my creations to Instagram & getting a lot of nice feedback. When this happens you can get too confident in your own abilities. To be fair it’s one thing to create items that have aesthetic value only versus things that have a functional purpose. I willprovide you a actually nice example, as this played out recently when I tried to build a wheelchair ramp for relatives. I thought I had gotten so nice with laboring with wood that I forgot most of my projects were just bookshelves & things like that. When you build a structural item like a wheelchair ramp, you have to spend a lot of time making sure that the structure has a nice foundation & is completely solid. The first wheelchair ramp I built did not pass the test when I got on it to try & go up it with the spare wheelchair my relative loaned me for the project. I eventually ran into a similar issue when I bought a ductless mini split. These small heating & cooling systems update window cooling systems & portable cooling systems. However, if you do not know how to labor with your home’s electrical grid, you’re really going to need an electrician to install a ductless mini-split heating & cooling system. I had to call an electrician the next afternoon & have him come out & help me install the ductless mini-split in my basement.
