There is only one thing worse than a missing washer is a spare bolt/set screw left on completion of a job.
As an apprentice we use to fully strip and rebuild 3phase electrical contactors, about 200 components, bolts, nuts, springs, washers, circlips, contacts, spaces etc. One of the electricians use to add a couple of extra components to the stripped down pile and hover in the background to see if you just chucked them away.
Revenge was sweet though when an apprentice swapped a couple of carbon brushes for wooden ones in a Single phase motor, Electrician spent all morning trying to get it to run, especially funny that the apprentice swapped them back out without getting seen so the motor ran perfectly when he reconnected it.
Not much repaired now unfortunately, usually just swap it out now.
May the Ford be with you
