Aldi Torque Wrench
Aldi have a Torque wrench for sale for $30. Bought one today to use to tighten my wheel nuts. I like to be sure my nuts are tight!
For $30 it is a fine bit of Chinese engineering, wouldn't rely on it for fine tolerance work or constant use, but as a fancy wheel brace, or once in a blue moon need it fits the bill.
Time Marches On .....and on ..... and on

Thansk for the feedback TimE.
I don't mind Aldi for the thrash around tools. To be honest I still have a drop saw that I got from Aldi for $60 and use it to chop up thin stringy bark trees for the fire and after 3 years of absolute punishment It's still going strong. I have jammed the hell out of it until it starts smoking and to this day (touch wood) it still has not popped!
