Sure. Punch trees, set up a crafting station and build some tools, get a furnace going, but if you're lazy just find four existing trees in a rough rectangle, take down the leaves, fill in the walls and ceiling, and there you go.

You can also punch chickens and put that delicious raw chicken in the furnace.

I can do drywall, electrical work (I *can* do it but I'd rather not, as I'm an amateur and don't want to die), home automation, basic plumbing like installing toilets and other utilities, etc. I took architectural drafting in high school.

So, no.

>> No.6102914

Actually yes, I probably could. Worked seven years as a mason, two as a plumber, and on top of that my father is a general contractor and I grew up helping him build and renovate the house I grew up in. Naturally I'm not licensed to do any of this stuff professionally, but if the question is simply do I have the skills to do it, yes.

>> No.6102922

>>6102914

That's basically the position I'm in. I grew up working with my uncle (stonemason). I worked in construction to help pay for college. I've had plenty of experience with home renovation/remodeling, electrical, plumbing, etc. I've done concrete work, framing, laid brick. I can operate a loader and excavator very well and I am passable with a bulldozer. I certainly have the skills to do it but no, I'm not licensed.

Unlike women, if men can't build a house they'll figure out how to build a house.
Women will be unable to build a house and then blame someone else for being unable to build a house.
Perhaps instead of a person criticising others in order to mask their inability, a person should instead focus on improving their skill set.

None of this stuff is rocket science. You could fix a car engine with some youtube videos if you had the time.

Niggers can't conceive of waste disposal, so rocket science is way out of their capability, so is any kind of engine let alone a youtube video.

I don't care if you're a girl or a guy or a trap or a reverse trap or a fucking tumblrgender. If you're living on your own and don't know the basics of cooking small meals, you should whip yourself the fuck into shape.

building a house is not comparable to cooking
a more appropriate question is "can you do a tune up"

as someone who has both cooked and done some minor construction work, I would slap that bitch upside the head. even being an assistant on a minor job was a much harder, longer job than cooking a multiple course meal for dozens of people. if I had relatives with a restaurant, I'd work for them instead of the ones with houses that need remodelling any day
