Hit 200 shutter repairs last Tuesday and it totally caught me off guard

I've been fixing cameras out of my garage for maybe 3 years now, never really kept a log until a buddy told me to jot down each job. Well I counted up all my CLA receipts and shutter fixes from an old notebook and hit exactly 200 repairs this month. Has anyone else tracked a milestone like that and had it change how they see their own skill level?

Seth's got a point, 200 fixes just means you've gotten real good at the rhythm of it, but it's the one that stumps you that actually teaches you something new lol.

Hitting 200 repairs might just mean you've memorized the easy stuff without really understanding it, @sean48. That one stubborn fix you keep failing at actually forces you to learn the hard parts and break down the whole problem. Repetition just makes you fast, but failure makes you flexible.

200 repairs is just practice, real skill shows when you still mess one up.
