hm,
that's a tricky thing. You can definitely teach yourself, but I would advise against creating an extension with the so-called "postman half-knowledge". The profession of a bricklayer is not a vocational training for nothing.
I am a bricklayer, but I could also teach myself how to lay and install gas pipes and gas heating systems... however, I wouldn't necessarily trust my knowledge then.
