When stationed in the Far East I was a shop superintendent. We had a small machine shop within the shop.
I needed a pair of replacement spindles so took the best one to our lead machinist and told him to make me a pair. The next day he delivered to my desk three spindle identical in every way to include the wear.
That was a good lesson for me.
