Using a torque wrench?

[slowmotion]

A general point. If you have a ratchet-type torque wrench, store it with the torque setting as close to zero as possible. It saves the mechanism inside which will age otherwise and go out of calibration.
As you were.

Well so far I'm finding it useful... I think it's having the longer bigger handle that meant I can do things up tighter than I can with a set of Allen Keys. For the saddle I decided to mark a line on the bolt and tighten it to the same place, with the Allen keys I was still a quarter turn away then I used the wrench. Now we will have to see if it stays put.

Comparing how I tighten most bolts to using the wrench I would say I'm in the right zone but probably just under when I'm not using the wrench.

i quite liked the advice some wag on here gave, "do it up till the thread strips or yoù snap the bolt, then back it off a bit"
