i wonder if there's a ten step program for this?


Yes

Step 1
Buy hammer, hacksaw & file

Step 2
Sell hacksaw, buy bandsaw

Step 3
Realise that filing is hard work, so buy mill

Step 4
A mill cannot easily make round thingies, so buy lathe

Step 5
Blunt tools don't work too well, buy grinder

Step 6
Thingies need to be stuck together, so buy welder

Step 7
Welds need smoothing, buy angle grinder

Step 8
Mill is not large enough, buy bigger

Step 9
Lathe is not large enough, buy bigger

Step 10
Realise you NEED many more tools



You are addicted - go to
