==The Sims 2==
<blockquote class="note">Being handy around the house can save money in expensive repair costs and allow your Sim to advance in certain careers. Sims can improve this skill by studying do-it-yourself books from a bookshelf or by repairing broken items at home.</blockquote>
This skill is mainly useful for repairing things, but is also needed to advance in some [[careers]] and [[majors]]{{vgversion|TS2:U}}. If ''[[The Sims 2: Open for Business]]'' is installed, it helps in building the [[Robotics]] and [[Toy Making]] [[talent badge]]s. A Sim's mechanical skill determines the chance of getting electrocuted when attempting to repair a broken electrical or electronic object. It can be studied from a book, or learned by repairing broken items or by using the [[Career rewards#TraumaTime "Incision Precision" Surgical Training Station|TraumaTime "Incision Precision" Surgical Training Station]]. In [[The Sims 2 (console)|console]] versions, mechanical skill may be gained from the "Jimmy three fingers" rocket bench.
If the ''[[The Sims 2: FreeTime]]'' is installed, studying the mechanical skill from a book will increase a Sim's enthusiasm for the Tinkering hobby. There is also a [[One Man's Junk Car|broken down car]] which builds Sims' mechanical skill while they repair it.
