Something along these lines would look good...

What kind of Espresso Machine are you putting in? I have been following along since the beginning, and like so many have said before, Great Work! Envious of your skills and patience. Pat

Great build. Been following along, and might suggest fastmount panel fasteners... Www.fastmount.com. We use them in yachts and trains...

Got the Snap On bug years ago working at a friends boat shop. His rep is amazing. Spotless vehicle, in and out. Found a rep in my area, close to my house. She's great! Has good deals, very accommodating, and gets my special orders on time. When I can't track her down, it's no problem to...

Spyderco Para-Military 2. Still waiting for mine....3 months and counting.

Well, 316 inch-lbs = 26.5 ft-lbs. I was doing 32 ft-lbs. It's official, I'm an idiot! if only I had that chart a little while ago... I just bought the set off the truck, and less than 24 hours later, broke it. Thanks for posting that chart. I'm gonna keep a copy in the box. :beer:

I figured... Snapped off a brand new Snap-On 7/32, with 32ft-lbs... Guess I'll be visiting the tool truck, doing the walk of shame...

I just broke my first tool, and I'm kinda mad at myself. Putting together a TracRac, and going over the fasteners that need to be torqued to 32 ft-lbs. Used my regular hex bits (7/32), no problem. One bolt had a bit of a fit issue, but I used a ball-style hex bit, and torqued it down...

Looking for a slightly used (or new) set of the above Bit Sockets. Let me know what you've got! Thanks, Pat

I use mine a lot, but I have the regular size one. I bought the flexible spring socket extension for it, and have a 5/16" socket on it for working on hose clamps in tight spaces. One of my favourite tools!
