    buy a good one, it may seem expensive, but then think everytime you use that you know its going to be accurate because there is no such thing as an AWESOME good and cheap tool

    one thing my boss told me today, as i was using one to do up head bolts on a 2jz, is that you should always wind them back to 0(on mine 20nm) when you are finished as leaving it, leaves the spring loaded and will fuck it

    WB is "worth" getting re-calibrated when it gets older. That is $220ish to buy, but $80 to calibrate

    Kincrome is worth $100 and $80 to calibrate, making it disposable.

    I would pay the extra for the WB

    Cash converters can be very good for picking up bargain tools...also very good for finding your stolen tools too
