What comments about your work? I haven't made any! All I said was: "It takes 8-12 hours for Chris P. and 1-5 hours for a New Zealand guy."

It's not about your or anybody's skill! It's about 'What An Overhaul Is'
You said it yourself you need 1-5 hours to overhaul a clarinet. Is this not true?

"If all other aspects of a clarinet were in excellent condition to last reliably well into the future except for the pads - perhaps with thin, brittle membranes as has been common on top pro new - then the 'overhaul' needed - in this case a repad ONLY - to get the clarinet into top condition, could indeed take only an hour, with the speed, efficiency, and precision that experience brings".

"How long?... "The overhaul process, depending on the instrument and condition, takes me from 2 to 5 hours. 5 hours would be an instrument in very poor condition.”
