Torque wrench - SV650.org

For anyone that's interested.
Lidl have a 40 - 210 torque wrench at £12.99 in today, my local had about a dozen left tonight, think this is quite cheap compared to halfords etc, Any tools i've bought from them have been of a very good standard, German engineering huh!

I got one of those in a sale there a while back, not bad at all- it was the same as the one Machine Mart sell. Few other tools in this week's sale, spanner sets, a drill press and whatnot.

yeah ,i was gonna get one as well ,only its a 1/2 in drive that kinda killed it for me as most of my sockets are 3/8 ,gutted i was cos i got their e-mail and thought 'im gtng one'

It comes with an adaptor, if it's the same as the one I got- also a wobble bar. But it's not really any good for smaller values, and bigger ones'll burst most 3/8 sockets if you try too hard...

Machine Mart 1/2 inch deep sockets, £7 the set

always check they have it in stock tho! - got mine from linlithgow after a search around.

If anyone misses out, and doesn't want to be seen in Argos, Machine Mart do the same one at £15.26.

Also this:

or this

And you can take on most of what the SV has. A set of deep sockets would be good too. Sorted
