"A great book! I'm planning to purchase these as wedding gifts or first apartment guides. Meant for a novice woman repairperson, but young guys might appreciate it, too."
"The pictures are all of women, there are useful pages showing everything you need (with pictures, so if you wonder what on earth a dry wall saw is, you can see one), it says when you need a "helpful friend", and is written with much female humor. ("The age lines are showing after years of over-exposure to the sun. Does it help you feel better that we're just talking about your deck?") There are helpful bits about how to find the right thing at the hardware store, and they explain stuff like what a stud in the wall is, how to find one, and so on.
Useful info, although most of it I already knew how to do. The one thing I really needed to know, however, was there! How to repair a Large hole in dry wall, if-- just for example-- your 11 year old daughter has recently kicked her foot through it."
"A must-have for women who want to tinker around the house but may not possess inherent tinkering chops. My grandma was an immensely capable woman, and I proudly march in her footsteps, this book in tow, installing my own toilet seats, replacing screens, and even venturing into plumbing!"
