I have been enjoying replacing the exterior trim boards of the patio door to our 2nd floor patio, during my spare time while WFH. And get a very strong sense of concrete accomplishment in a decade almost.
The biggest learning is that the process is vastly more complicated then whatever I could imagine.
Different materials of materials
Priming & painting (on lumber boards, and repair some surrounding areas)
Tools
Measurements and design
Woodworking to hide small blemishes
The amount of labor is staggering as well. To name just one idea, carrying lumber and a bag of tools between the 2nd floor and the garage workshop has been a constant tiring experience.
And a lot of learning, each time when I progressed a bit, new study is required on dozens of youtube videos, and search on HomeDepot/Lowes/Amazon to get an idea on the materils/tools needed.
