Hit 1,000 shutters fixed... wasn't keeping count lol

I was organizing my repair logbook on Sunday and realized I've repaired exactly 1,000 camera shutters since I started this gig back in 2018. Most of them were Canon and Nikon DSLR shutters from around Austin. It's wild to think that's so many tiny spring and blade swaps under the microscope. Has anyone else hit a random milestone like this and just stopped to think about it?

Buddy of mine hit 500 guitar strings changed and realized he'd been restringing the same guitar for six years without ever actually playing it.
