A hammer is always a good option when reading one of Patrick's "I'm bored today" threads. I wish I had one right now to hit myself in the head for reading this thread.

Kind of like Avis and Hertz? Honestly, I think the post calculation is wrong anyway. I just don't think I've posted 18K times. That would border on "obsessive behavior."

OK, pardon me but I just have to make a comment about the units of torque, hopefully something all of us should understand. Twice, in different posts, torque was expressed in ft/lbs and then later just lbs. Torque is the product of a force (lbs, newtons,...) and distance (ft, inches, meters,...) so the units of torque are expressed in ft-lbs, in-lbs, newton- meters,...). Then later a high grade aluminum, suitable for rocket ships, etc. was referred to as "T6". Aluminum is identified by the four numbers that define the alloy followed by a T and another number that defines the heat treating temper. The strongest aircraft alloy is 7075, followed by 2024, and then 6061 and would have tempers like T4 or T6. T0 is dead soft. The author probably was referring to 6061 T6 which is a fairly strong and lower priced alloy.
Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the strength to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. -(wasn't me)

Let's Go To The Video Tape...
Well obviously the only way I get you nay-sayers to STFU is to post video. So here it is: https://youtu.be/CmkGZXKI3PA and I'll start using personal protective devices next time.

i was waiting for the info-mercial on it.....
if it would have grenaded, and bounced off your forehead, would you have still posted the video?
maybe with a mullet wig on, saying hold my beer, watch this?
BTW, i hear your compressor, there is no way it can feed an impact gun that puts out any sort of real torque, if it was, it would have spun that baby in a second, not the long period to break it loose.
sounds like a smaller single stage head that can put out 125 psi max but not alot of volume
