Wrench

What´s up OWI? Are there any factors threatening SQUAD? There is no real response except fuzzheads words - Gatzby went away with no goodbye? Is all of this (and also the firing of Nordic) postponing release dates etc.?

I would appreciate a honest answer :)

#Thanks guys I went ahead and ordered a Milwaukee Hole Hawg and an extra bigass socket adapter.

I remember reading about it in the past (or maybe in a dream)

Its an electric tool with a right angle worm drive output, maybe with a hex or square drive. It probably is not intended for automotive work.

Similar to that hydraulic thing that AVE was using to break wrenches.

I need it to remove the very tight body mount bolts on my truck. I remember reading a post from a guy who modified this tool to hold a socket and spin these bolts out. His co-workers were afraid to use it because its too powerful.

Without the power tool the very long bolts fight you the whole way out and you spend hours per bolt with a breaker bar.

Impact tools cause the inaccessible captive nuts inside the body to tear out.

Does anyone know where the cheapest place to get a C Wrench is?

Hey guys, so I've been trying to join the army as an officer through the OCS route for a while now. I was accepted on a board last year, but shortly after had an injury and had to withdraw. After getting surgery for it, I've gotten completely better and consistently max my PFT score now.

However, my recruiter just called me and told me that, while I did get medically approved for my injury, due to a combination of my withdrawal as well as a significant reduction in OCS slots this year due to covid, my chances of getting into OCS are slim to none, since they have thousands of applications and are taking less than 100.

He basically said I have 3 options.

1. Go through army reserves and hope that they offer me an active duty contract at the end of reserve OCS.
2. Enlist for 2 years, after 18 months I can apply to OCS. He said that if I maintain my fitness, stay out of trouble and be a good soldier, getting an OCS packet should be pretty easy for me. Plus, being prior enlisted will help

I'm trying to learn more about fixing/tuning bikes, and recently had an issue where my thru-axle came out on a ride. I know I should have checked it before I rode, so to help prevent it happening again, I'm thinking about getting a torque wrench.

Are they a necessary part of a repair kit? Or do you think you can get by without them?

some places i read it says you need a torque wrench to tighten a lawnmower blade, could I just use a ratchet wrench to tighten it?

I have a Raleigh Revino Carbon 2 and have basically never done my own maintenance on it. When I moved out of the city, I also haven't taken it for a tune up in a while. With the virus stuff going on, I'm trying to finally teach myself some bike maintenance.

I'll be replacing my neglected chain, cassette, and chainrings, as well as a bent derailleur hanger. Do any of these require exact torque?

What on a bike like mine would need one (if I do more replacements in the future)? And what's with the handle bars needing more exact torque? Thanks for any help you can provide!

i know lot of people recommend a beam wrench but i dont like using them. I want a regular wrench, what you recommend is the cheapest one thats still worth having? Looking like 3-15nm
