My grandpa's workbench top still haunts me after all these years

Went back to my parents' place last month and saw the old workbench my grandpa built in the 70s. That thing has survived 4 moves, a flood, and my teenage attempts at fixing a lawnmower with a hammer. I tried to build a simple shelf last week and ended up with 3 crooked brackets and a bruised thumb. It got me thinking, how do people actually learn this stuff now when even the basic stuff goes sideways? Anybody else look at an older relative's setup and feel like you missed some secret class on building things?
