    I carry a spare brake chamber now, Had a cage come loose once, and cook a brake drum ( yeah, I know you will say it wasn’t caged right, and I agree, I don’t think it could have been either)… I can take the entire shebang off and change it almost as quick as caging a brake.

    Perhaps not, but a man who actually wants to get better at what he does and takes pride in it, eventually will. That’s what @TripleSix calls “bringing your A-game”.

    That’s how it went for me and I had no formal training to speak of the way people seem to now. Everything I know was self taught.
