Its always "in the details". I think time in=experience. I've always said "hard work= good results", even in financial faiure, if you were sincere in your heart, you've still gained invaluable experience.
Tommy Silva of "This Old House" fame, said "when you build a house there are 7000 things you need to know, when you rebuild/remodel a house there are 70,000 things you need to know".
Backing into a relm of variables brings an unknown, remodeling as opposed to building new. Houses and contracting are much more expensive, but man hours are man hours, however, a much more appreciatory asset, so there are more rewards. Rebuilding a car is very similar to rebuilding a house, but the house will probably go up in value...
I love building, whether its housing or automotive, "if you find something you love to do, you'll never have to work a day in your life", but then the business gets involved.....and that gets tricky. Every customer is different,, every job is different, Us leaders are "supposed" to be flexible, and i don't know how to bend lol.
Great topic, love listening too the different opinions on how we do things.....
Hope some of this makes sense.....
