If he's got this far without winning the Darwin award, then he may make out fine. But I'm also one of the minority in the US that still believes in the old fashioned principle that a person should be personally responsible for their actions.

There has been some discussion about homebrew dipoles not being true homebrewing. However, homebrewing starts some place. If the beginning of it is making and installing a dipole, that is a legitimate project. Homebrewing begins with a small project, having success or failure, and learning from that success or failure and building the confidence that you can proceed
on to larger projects.

Exactly. I would be frightened if someone showed up on the list and wrote, "I've never built or repaired any electronic circuits before, but I just got my ham license and now
I want to homebrew a legal-limit tube amp."
