Rant: rebuilding the same rear hub three times in one week because I kept guessing at bearing preload instead of using the damn gauge
Spent three evenings last week chasing a wobble on a customer's commuter wheel in my Minneapolis garage, and the third time it clicked that I was setting bearing tension by feel while the Park tool sat right there on the bench, so now I want to know who else learned that lesson the hard way.

Three rebuilds in a week seems like more of a process problem than a tool problem, honestly. The gauge helps but it won't save you if you're not slowing down and checking your work before you button it up.
