I wonder... is that the hallmark of a man? To take things apart to see how they work?
That's what I used to do also... watches, bicycles, sushi rolls, computers, clothing (did my own amateur sewing just to see what it was like)... but unlike you I have no technical skills and never did a good job at anything. Even took apart my pet gerbil (after it died of natural causes) and couldn't put him back together again, let alone reanimate him as an ever-living pet.
