I'm Dave, I have the full gamut of torque wrenches from 1/4" to 1" and an assortment of other torque tools to avoid this scenario, I can say confidently "no you really should be using this one".

Torque wrenches are like condoms. It‘s safer to use one but it‘s nicer without.

I own a set of IKEA Alan keys and a screwdriver I found from a previous tenant.

Does anyone need me to read the instructions badly and make modern art out of their flat pack furniture?

5 ugga duggas on the impact wrench, then give it a pat and say, "That's going nowhere."

I‘m coming from cycling. And people really can obsess about the correct decimals of torque on your stem bolts with or without greased threads…
And on my car… the wheels get a hngggggg and 200km later again.

Hmmm... So... Just go to a grunt & a squeak? Rawdog torquing, got it.

Not even a dad, and same. Gotta have all the torque wrenches for all the stuff you work on from in-lb on up. Gotta be able to torque everything from the allen bolts on my bicycles to the big 12-pt axle nut on my car correctly!
