how often do you read the manual/directions/instructions/booklets/etc.. for the merchandise you buy if you don't under something. Or are you those that uses google to solve all your answers.

Depends on what I'm working on. Most assembled stuff is straight foreword, like tv stands, bookshelves, computer desks, etc. If it's something more complicated, I'll look at how it's supposed to be assembled.

QUOTE(Deospeon @ Mar 12 2009, 01:13 PM)  I was originally intending to write "How the fk should I know?!" lolI'll usually look at the directions, then attempt, then mess something up, then read the directions. If it's something straightforward I won't read directions, attempt, then mess something up, then read the directions.

Usually I won't because it's just common sense but when it comes to electronics I like to read the manuals because sometimes you find out how to do something cool that you weren't aware of in the first place.
