[QUOTE="D200freak, post: 539977, member: 41018"] Just remember, complex consumer electronics like smartphones and DSLR cameras are assembled by assembly line workers making 10 bucks an hour. The engineering goes into the design of the parts, it really doesn't take an engineering degree to be able to assemble them or disassemble them. Add some ability to troubleshoot logically and you've got the essentials of a repairman. The only thing that separates "mere mortals" from engineers is taking the time to learn what engineers too the time to learn. You CAN learn it. The only question is whether or not you will decide to do it. Ways of learning vary, too. I learn the most by going hands-on. I'm not so great in a classroom. Give me the instruction manual and something that needs fixing, and I'll take it from there. [/QUOTE]
