Not sure how handy I am, but do a lot of the basic stuff. For example, in the last month I've cut a dead tree down, replaced the cartridge to the shower, replaced the cabin AC filter in the car instead of paying the dealership $70, replaced the rear hatch struts on one of our vehicles and have a kit to sand down the UV damage to the headlight protectors and get them back to clear. All told, probably saved myself over $1,000

Haven't done any big jobs in a while.
