Skills I Wish I Had at the Moment…
“Skills I Wish I Had at the Moment (but probably wouldn’t need as much if I had a ton of money)”…
Woodworking / Cabinet-making
As I’ve begun to work on my home, it’s become evident to me how useful it would be to know something about woodworking. I’d like to cover the radiators in the apartment. (Apparently I’m not alone. Prices start at 145 bucks at the local hardware store and go up from there. I look at these things and I think to myself “they must not take all that long to build and can’t use that all that many raw materials… if only you know what the hell you’re doing!”. Unfortunately in NYC we seem to pay a premium for “not knowing what the hell we’re doing” as well as the “we’re lucky if we own a hammer” tax. Of course, if I had the bucks I wouldn’t worry about such things, but then if I had the bucks I probably wouldn’t live in an apartment that had ugly radiators that needed hiding.
