Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
Not so much a repair that I made myself, since kind of hard to do at home, but last Fri I got new rear tires on my motorhome. It has dual rear axles and takes 8 tires, and they are big truck tires size 11R22.5. The big truck tires are much more cost than smaller regular car or light truck tires, and buying 8 does not help. So besides driving down to truck tire place, my main contribution was $3300 bill to pay.
This past week for partial day Sunday and a couple evenings after work, I installed a heater in my 52 GMC hot rod truck. Getting a bit colder now and the heater will let me keep driving it through winter. So while not a strict repair, it was work done by me. I used a small heater out of a 80's Nissan pickup that I removed out of a truck at the junkyard on one of my trips there. Next spring or summer I will get around to hooking up some A/C in it. This past summer was just getting it running and driving, now to add the luxuries like heat and A/C.
Just to make my post a bit more exciting, here is a pic of the motorhome, towing the GMC on one of my trips this past summer; a crappy pic from parked in a rest area:
