The DIY Episode - When Things Could be Fixed by Mom or Dad

On this episode of Galaxy Moonbeam Night Site, Mike and Smitty look back to the golden days of do-it-yourself. 30, 40, 50 years ago or more, it was common for our dads, granddads, uncles, or friends and neighbors to tackle a repair job themselves. Whether it was fixing a washing machine, putting in a door, tuning up a car, or any other household jobs, that task was likely handled by the homeowner himself. Why was this? Many of our dads and granddads were products of the depression-era, when you learned to take care of things yourself. Another factor is that many things lent themselves to being repaired, unlike so many of the products we use today that disposable. An interesting look back to a different era and a different way of doing things that surely will bring back memories for many.
