    TR - B&Q are doing 3-4 hr DIY classes for adults in 20+ different subjects. €15 per session.
    @ Liffey Valley See the website www.diyclasses.ie for more info

    I do work for B&Q so hope this is not contravening some advertsing rule, just responding to a question with a legitimate answer

    Most of the secondary schools have them running from september for adults.

    Some are actually quite good. Trinity comprehensive in ballymun does a few good one's

    Thanks. I just saw the B&Q one for changing a tap is four hours.

    Does it really need to be that long?

    Hi,

    its a basic plumbing course, includes fault finding and how to fix and it does include changing a tap, but changing a tap does not consitutue the full 4 hr session!

    its actually very good (did it myself earlier this week) and shows you what simple things you can do yourself without the need for a plumber.

    The Tim Robbins?!
    Maybe Harrison Ford will help you out - he's supposed to be a master carpenter!

    Seriously though, this crowd might be worth a look.
