I have been a shop mechanic many times over many years. Most of the build posts I see here indicate to me that most of here in C&V are competent. I'm no longer fast at most bike jobs but there are a few that I'm super fast at. For instance, I can change a tube and put a bike back on the road before you can blink. I'm still fast at building and truing wheels as long as the components are old-school standard. One reason I'm slow is that my stuff isn't organized or neatly laid out, and my workshop is too small for the job. There are other reasons I probably don't need to list. (That's a straightman line. Have at me.)
