a lot of times people make a list of all the pieces just so they don't forget what they're putting the bike.
This is a good starting point.
More advanced process is the break-up how are you repair or assemble the bike in three steps.
Preparation, assemble, adjust : setting up these three things allow a mechanic to work the they want and stop in the middle of a process to take care for another customer (as in someone needs a flat tire repaired.)
Prep is everything that can be done on the bench. Assembly get the bike out of the box and place all the parts on the bench. For repair, remove everything off the bike that is worn out or damaged, plus wheels. Pre assemble parts together on the bench (toe clips on pedals, fender or rack hardware, truing rounding dishing replacing cassette on wheel , inflating tires) anything that needs to be preassembled before it is placeded on the frame.
Assemble everything from bench to frame. No adjustments.
Grab the tools for adjustments, adjust everything, put tools away.

Im looking for some examples of bike build sheet or forms that folks use either for shop builds or build/earn-a-bike programming (i.e volunteer use OR participant use).
I have a form that we use at Bike Pirates that we stole from Recycle a Bicycle in Ottawa many years ago, but I'd like to see some other examples for a youth program I now run.
Any examples would be appreciated!
Thanks!
ainsley.
