Yeah but garages use the setting about that and a few chugs more for luckTried it today on a wheel nut [neighbour's car] which was set at 110Nm using a torque wrench. It failed, despite trying both fully charged batteries to loosen it, so I've asked for a return on this basis. My needs would exceed that figure - 120Nm is the tightening setting for the BMW.
Oh well, seemed like a good idea at the time.
Interesting tailstock.
Definitely. Complicated looking machine.
But today's test was undoing a nut that had been slackened after my first failed effort, then set back to 110Nm again. Still nothing doing.....
They are hiding in different places. You have to keep hunting. I know lots of people in different places so have eyes in lots of areas

When the workshop is built and complete. Your more than welcome to come and visit. I collect. Restore them and keep them for my own pleasure and happy that I have saved another piece of history.
