Friends, I have delighted in the entirety of this thread because I am in 
such good company.

Fenders are hard to install ≠ I'm not a good mechanic 
Fenders are hard to install = the more I do it and practice 
problem-solving, the better I will get!

Over the past 10 years, I've mounted fenders on a Kona mountain bike, 
wooden fenders on my Saluki, SKS fenders on my winter Trek 620, longboards 
on a QB, longboards on a cheviot (Mark Abele had everything ready to go, 
though), and fatty P65's on the custom.  Goodness, each time I swear and 
groan and prepare for it to last hours—but each time I increase my skills, 
get better lines, have better tools at hand, can problem-solve around 
spacers and bolts and so forth, and MAYBE even do it a little faster.

What is good to know is the reassurance that fender installment can be 
really tricky, and so my confusion means I am learning something hard!

Grant referred to these ideas, specifically Poe Bronson, in an old reader.  
When I get home tonight, I'll find it and share which number it was (if 
someone doesn't beat me to it)
