Obviously we have a limited resources, but perhaps as a community we can figure out a way to work smarter.
There is a lot of talent here. Although, we have masters like Ziggy, who can do everything, perhaps we need more people specializing, and it becomes a win-win. When you need new tires for your car, you can go to the dealer, or to a shop that just sells and specializes in tires.
For example, if you break things down;
Movements (simple out of the box, regular maint., clean & regulate)
Movement modifications, transplants for Frankens.
Lume
Case Modifications
Dial Modifications
AR
etc...
Let's just say, for example, I became a wiz at just Movement Maint. I make it known, and thus provide ONE specific service-- clean, oil, and regulate. Meanwhile, (insert user name here) is king of case mods like drilling lug holes, replaceing tubes, crown guards, etc. (insert user name here) is a Lume Guru, and of course "Chief" is already the AR king.
It becomes a money maker for those interested in a little side work.
This may actually be happening, just not very well known. I guess it becomes a case of how motivated people are to provide a service and make it public.
Just some random thoughts.
