You workout and play golf, two things I can no longer do at 63 because of multiple back surgeries. I envy you! In spite of that I can DIY, of course at slow speed, but the job looks better and cheaper than hired out. I am in the process of re-plumbing, rewiring my house, and fixing the poor footing work that has caused moisture to get in the house and cause mold. I learned by doing and just buying books, long before Al Gore invented the internet.
I can do most construction trades at a high level, the only thing I have not done is large scale cement finishing, only small projects. Considering that I would say You Tube is a great place to learn, except about electricity for some reason, you have people posting crap that would get a person a nasty shock or electrocuted and dead.
If anyone here has a question on an electrical project, just ask me, I am more than willing to help. I can send you pictures of my work and custom designs that work to prove I know what I am talking about.
