Hi Guys with all the little torque settings on gadgets and outboards these days.
Does anyone know of a torque meter gauge! something like weight scales to measure your torque setting wrench adjustment against.

Cause I could set the wrench up! but have no idea if the fine adjustment is correct!

As I use to have a feel for things like this and not worry to much.
But my wife tells me I have lost all sensitivity in the touchy feely qualites I use to have.

So now I'm worried about my wrench skills hate to break something and just twist it off.:-/

You can get the tension wrench calibrated.
Or get a known good one and bung a big nut and bolt in the vise and do a heap of different tension settings with the known tension wrench and check the calibration of your 'unknown'
