My torque wrench drawer overfloweth

[toolaholic]

Hi all, I have a craftsman center box on a shelf with all my torque wrenches are in. I have a adapter set in there, various torque adapters , a angle gauge , torque screwdriver etc. Since I have all that I recently added 3 gearwrench socket sets to have handy. The 10mm 12mm and 14mm. Those sets have all the same size socket in various configurations.

I have 15 torque wrenches. I love them all like they were my children. I'm addicted to torque wrenches.

Some stored on the top too. A Wright 30-150 lb ft, a kobalt 50/250 lb ft both obviously 1/2 drive and a neiko 3/4 drive torque converter .

My most used is a gearwrench flex head 5-75 lb ft 3/8. My seldom used pride and joy is a gorgeous Wright dial 0-600 inch lbs 3/8 bought brand new on amazon for $80. I think amazon just wanted rid of it.

I have 7 that cover every range and type I need and thought that was excessive.

I bought one today so that brings my total to 87. They range from 5 in. lbs. to 600 ft. lbs. It takes me a few days to check the calibration every year. I have 1 Tohnichi, 3 KTC, 2 Gedore Dremometers, 4 CDI and the rest are Snapon.

My newest one is a steel grip CDI. Man, it's beautiful. Bought used. Sent it in for calibration and it's +/- 1 percent spec.

I actually thought about starting a thread like this because I had some questions about the torque wrenches I had and went looking in vain for a "Torque Wrenches of GarageJournal" or "Show us your Torque Wrenches" thread. Since the thread title might or might not be well-optimized for being found over time, can I suggest the OP make a new thread with one of those two titles or similar? (main criteria being findable, with fun/funny a plus)

Wow, that's a grip of torque wrenches! What do you do that requires so many?

I have 6 plus a torque multiplier, which has me covered from a few in lbs up to 1,000 ft lbs.

I'm at at least 20 so I can't pick on anybody else.

 

[peteco]

I only have 7. You guys give me an inferiority complex.

 

[dubdoc]

Wow, and I thought I was bad. I have 3....a 1/2", a 3/8" and an old unused Sturtevant dial-type.

 

[KnurledNut]

toolaholic, i like your idea of a separate box just for torque tools.

 

[mike93lx]

I have one. A 1/2" for torquing lugnuts
