Get your mechanic to come to your hangar.

This worked really well for me, I had the plane all taken apart,
lubricated, etc., by the time Jim came over and did his IA thing.

Great idea, but for one little detail: It's colder than heck here in
March, when my annual is due!

Our hangar is unheated (unless you call our Jet-A powered torpedo
heater "heat". It scorches a 5 square foot area, and everything else
is still freezing!), and my extremities just don't handle the cold very
well anymore. Fine motor skills -- like those required for screwing in
a hundred little screws -- are the first thing to go...
