That is hilarious! For the record I have the 1/2" torque wrench from there, that same jack (it is labelled 2.5 tons but it is the same jack), and 2 pairs of their 3 ton jack stands. A lot of my other stuff is from there as well. The only time I got in trouble with the wrench is when I tried to use it to torque the oil drain plug on my Toyota FJ. I can't remember the setting, but it was very low, like right at the very lowest setting on the wrench. I also had not been resetting it to the lowest setting, I hade been leaving it up on 85 or 95 ft/lbs. Since then I learned always reset to the lowest setting, and don't use it for delicate adjustments at the very bottom of its range, and it has been fine.
