OK so Im in the market for a new torque wrench.. Maybe two of them.
I have used/owned both click-type and beam style wrenches. Both were from Sears and I was happy about them.
My place of employment uses Proto wrenches and those are sadly, out of my price range. They would never get used enough to justify the cost... But man they are really nice.
What is the average garage builder using these days?
Honestly, Id like to stick with Craftsman as I think they are pretty OK quality for the prices and everything else is out of my price range. I want to avoid ordering online because you dont know how the package has been handled during shipping and personally, Ive seen the worst when I worked at Fed Ex briefly.
I would like to get a 3/8 drive for inch pounds to covert the smaller value Ft. pounds to inches. Also a 1/2" drive or possibly 3/8 for other Ft. Lbs. values.
Basically, I know I need two wrenches...
What have you guys used and had success with?
