We repair or restore mechanical parts for different reasons.
-Maybe its worth it financially because theyre expensive. Check and see.
-Maybe its rare or old they dont make them anymore.
-Maybe its an obsolete part from an out of business company.
-Maybe the replacement will take months to get here and you need something until then.
-Maybe the part sucks and is known for breaking, and we all know i can make it better.
And we can do repairs so its just good enough. Or to where you can hardly tell it was messed with.
