One of the reasons I like an old fashion beam torque wrench is that it
will not go out of calibration, regardless of abuse, assuming that you
have not removed
Luckily(?), I actually cracked the nail at the point of impact near
the base, which allowed blood to seep out of the crevace. It filled
up the fingertip in glove I was wearing. I've never busted a nail
like this before, so I just assumed I'd lose it. It appears to be
doing ok at this point, and

For this reason I prefer my beam torque wrench. It should last
'forever'. It's also interesting to watch the torque creep down

It was Snap-On, and I dropped it off at a local mec

" busting knuckels" is a common occurrence among ppl who dont repair cars

Last night I was torquing the prechambers into my new #22 head, and on
the very last collar my 20yr old SnapOn torque wrench's internal
ratchet decided to let go. I smashed the nail on my pinky-finger, and
will probably lose it in time--yes, it hurts.
