im drabe. im 17 and live in central new york. i have always had a facisnation with tools, contruction, equipment and just working with my hands. im not the most mechanically inclined but i can tell you how a diesel engine works and how to pull an engine out of a 1980 JCB Backhoe. i want to be a diesel mechanic someday. though im not the best mechanic(i want to learn though)
one thing i am good at is carpentry. for a 17 year old i can frame walls. layout stairs, and frame rafters pretty well. one way for me to learn is volunteer at a local boyscout camp where i help other volunteers who are mechanics help the ranger fix the backhoe and work trucks. this is one of the few times i actually get to tinker with engines and machinary. im learning a lot from this forum already and im jealous but i work with waht i got

Welcome aboard. What part of central NY are you from? I am in Delaware County, near Delhi but have a summer place near Rome on Delta Lake.

Ask questions here. There is a great pool of talented members on this forum. And remember, what you see by many here didn't happen overnight. It can take years to get to the point that many are here (unless of course you hit the lottery). ;)
