My disassembly of the transmission top cover pales in comparison. I'm in awe.

I can't do that, apart, yes, but not together.
My friend Hans Fritzsche is the specialist for this work.

I did mine.  It was challenging, fun, exciting.  After a lifetime of spinning wrenches there are not too many things I have not tackled.  I enjoyed ot.  Sort of like rebuilding a tiny little 6 cylinder engine.
