My doctor uses those. He sometimes uses 2 fingers so I can have a second opinion.
He's good like that.

,.. I don’t think I lost anything when I removed the bolts and disconnected the calipers. And, I’m pretty sure I reassembled them the same way they came off. I’ve learned to be very careful during disassembly not to lose stuff!

I've learned to thread all the nuts and bolts back where they came from as soon as I remove them. (Whenever it's possible.)

I'll have to unscrew/unbolt them again when I install the new parts, but I know Exactly where they go, and the orientation.

Even washers have an upside and downside to them.

I was eating my lunch with two female associates and somehow the topic of rubber gloves came up. I said that I can't because I need to feel what I am doing. They laughed for ten minutes.

I've always hated wearing gloves when I'm working on stuff.
I need to feel what I'm doing as well.

It's too easy to drop something with gloves on if you can't feel what's in your hand.

I always wear gloves while riding though.
I managed to find gloves that fit well and my hands are still nimble enough to have two or three fingers on the brake levers.

I have high viz gloves that breathe and have palm padding. But that is not working on something.

Some of the bikes we work on are so disgustingly grimy, I have to wear gloves. I use the solvent outside. As soon as it's clean enough, I take them off. I hate that sweaty mess under the gloves. Yuk.
