How much ground would a groundhog grind if a groundhog could grind ground?

A torque wrench is a standard item in almost any toolbox, vehicle or not.

So is a micrometer, calipers, and, dare I say, a breaker bar (or pipe).

Measure with a micrometer, mark with chalk, cut with an ax.

Advertisers like to use big words for a common item to make them seem more important, and in the end get their hands on your money. If a standard torque wrench works, use it. Otherwise that compamy will have to manipulate your wallet, and probably in a big way. Specialty tools are always overpriced.

Really. A specialty tool could mean an allen wrench. :)

A hammer is a specialty tool. It's specialty is pounding in nails. Do you know any other hand tool that does that? (power tools not included).

For electricians 9" linesman's pliers are a hammer and a prybar. A rock could hammer nails also though any tool not meant to hammer nails would be called a hammer.

Huh? "...any tool not meant to hammer nails would be called a hammer"

Wow, I've sure got a s-load of hammers in my workshop.

I know And I cook too...

Nah She really like my cooking.

oops A rock could hammer nails also though any tool not meant to hammer nails wouldn't be called a hammer.

I don't know if I made it any better, must have been drunk. :-)

Or shove up the.... never mind. o_O

I had to install some point of sale credit card terminals with screens that you use the attached plastic pen to electronically sign your name. The mounting screws had a custom cut tamper resistant Torx like head and a special unique driver bit that the customer kept in the store safe. If you shatter a bit, it must be ordered from the manufacturer of the fasteners by the part number assigned to the store chain. Total pain in the posterior region of your body to deal with those horrible things. o_O
