    The problems suddenly become clear.

    The job is seemingly easy but labour intensive, especially if he's winding the backstop by tape measure. There is too much potential to go wrong and have everything end in acrimony.

    It is very hard to convince a workshop to take on a tricky job and give it their best shot. They have past experience and simply won't believe you. It is not fun going back to the machine to try again after wasting half an hour placating someone with unreal expectations waving digital calipers in your face.
