If we say “As regular as squeezing a lemon” in the common sense, it means that we do something repeatedly and regularly and easily. However, many people think that the act of squeezing a lemon cannot be done consistently and repeatedly.

On the contrary, if we say “Even as a thatch” it means that when thatching a roof, people use thatch to weave together into an even weave and it is called thatch weaving. To have an even weave so that when the roof is thatched it looks beautiful and is not soaked by rain, the worker must have the technique and skill.

In your opinion, is "As steady as clockwork" or "As steady as clockwork" the correct idiom?
