Default Park Tool TW-1 Torque Wrench

I took my little Park Tool TW-1 Torque Wrench to the folks at PMEL on base today and they put it on their calibration machines for me and I am happy to report that it was dead on accurate. He tested it at a bunch of different torque values and they were all right on. I remembered when I was researching which torque wrench to buy that people were questioning the accuracy of this tool, but as far as mine goes, I am now very confident in this one. The guy told me that it was well within the 3% that is required for the tools that are used on all the jets. Good enough for me. Just figured I would pass this info along.
