Think the last time I used one was setting up Rons front diff on his Jeep with him.
Stop in for a cup of coffee

Quad State Gauging & Measurement Here's my guys. Ralph was the old guy that helped me out a lot.
I bought a new snappy torque wrench,for torqueing wheel nuts.
Wrench was on my desk and snap on truck just rolled out.
Gentleman rolls in and says his car is making a funny noise.
All of his wheel nuts were loose.
Put that baby into service the first day i got it. I use it almost daily.

They might have something for you. Desert Valley in Arizona might be another place.
I can see you using it daily. There was a whole procedure we had to follow before using it including breaking it on the low, med and highest setting three times in each direction. That's why when you walk around in a USAF hanger you will see a fixture mounted somewhere to do that on. Usually just some old sockets welded to a plate on a I beam seems to be the most common. Sucked when you were outside and needed one you had to go in and break it!
I used to sell the split beams for that purpose. You can leave it at the set torque and they don't loos calibration as quickly as the micrometer style. Click the liver, spin the dial, click the lever closed. Easy to adjust. The split beams aren't quite as accurate but that's splitting hares at 100 ft/lb.

We lived in Oregon for years Wildcat is great. Be patient when calling them, they move at their own pace but they are great guys and do what they say they will.
Craig I am very surprised some one on one of the forums does not have one.

you ever have one of those mornings where one piece just aint enough
@ZMan67S Wonder if this guy still has this one? Carter#4298s
I know must be too cold to go out to the shed and check.
Yep but I did talk to the owner.
I PM'd him and everyone else who'd mentioned a 4298. No luck.
Morning Folks. 78, a bit windy and a chance of rain. Starting to get used to this. Will be single digits with below zero nights when I return.....GRRRRRR
Put in 64.5hrs last week, not including dinners. 33.5 in so far this week now too. been some long days - thank God for the weather
I believe his name is Craig. (spooky Tuesday)
Maybe suggest to the boss you'd volunteer to stay behind and take care of any post conference issues.
Or just tell him you'll work from your new remote site for a couple more weeks.
Of course the boss at home might not approve any of this.
I'll send Steve a PM.
I'll see if he'd look for mine. Thanks!!
Worth a PM.
