Additional Information
I'm proficient in rebuilding tolerances and torque specifications understanding what ther for and why there important.
I'm mechanically inclined, can look at something understanding how mechanically it works why it it failed making sure the repairs last and can find the root cause of a failure if it was a "chain reaction" I'm highly motivated to get something done in a timely manner making sure its a quality repair that will last
