I'm not sure what the relevance is. I can do DIY science by getting access to whatever scientific equipment is needed to do the experiments. Does it really matter what it takes to get access to that equipment? It may be easy; it may be hard. But if it's possible what's the difference as far as your perspective on what science is?
