Thanks for the heads up! I just picked one up, and it also comes with the gun vice!

Sex offenders can not be rehabilitated. It's in their wiring. They should not be released back into the general public. On the other hand they should not be warehoused either. I think they should be executed.....Spectre

When someone tries to kill you, it doesn't matter how they are doing it. You're in mortal danger, and it's time to try to kill them back.

Kill every last one of these goddamned animals. We need a president with balls. We need leadership. We should be carpet bombing these barbarians wherever we find them, and we should be looking for them 24/7. We have to unleash Hell upon them. They understand nothing but death, so death is what we should bring them, wholesale.... Para

The gun vice option drives the price to $114.78. The $34.99 is for the Fat Wrench only.

I really gotta stop opening these threads. Each one has a new must-have that I never knew I needed. Smile

I got the wrench and the leveling kit.

I've had one for several years. I'm sure it's not super precise, but it does help prevent me from getting heavy handed with my screwdrivers. I use it for all my scope mounting work.

Got one from this thread. Friend has one and loved it.

"The designer of the gun had clearly not been instructed to beat about the bush. 'Make it evil,' he'd been told. 'Make it totally clear that this gun has a right end and a wrong end. Make it totally clear to anyone standing at the wrong end that things are going badly for them. If that means sticking all sort of spikes and prongs and blackened bits all over it then so be it. This is not a gun for hanging over the fireplace or sticking in the umbrella stand, it is a gun for going out and making people miserable with." -Douglas Adams

“It is just as difficult and dangerous to try to free a people that wants to remain servile as it is to try to enslave a people that wants to remain free."
-Niccolo Machiavelli

The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all. -Mencken

I ordered one as well. Looks like a nice tool. Given the extremely reasonable price and how big a pain in the ass accurately calibrating torque wrenches is, I was surprised to find a calibration card enclosed with already tight tolerances considerably beaten!

You can get better wrenches for not a lot more money. Nothing wrong with the Fat Wrench as long as you know what you're getting. I almost pulled the trigger on it before settling for something better for not much more $.

I used to work at a nuclear power house. They were very particular about torque wrenches. I have wondered about the Wheeler Fat Wrench. Could you point me to better wrench for not much more money? Thank you.
