inPro tip: Had to choose between two torque wrenches for a critical job
Holly's got a point, you can't just blindly trust the click. Miles_chen's story about the phantom wire is a perfect example of why. If the voltage setting is left too high, it might not click for a low voltage live wire, which is super dangerous. That calibration drift is real and sneaky. Checking it against a known source is the only safe way, like she does at work. Treating it like a perfect tool is how people get hurt.

inI just read that commercial bakeries in the 1950s often used ammonium carbonate instead of baking powder in some cookies, and it blew my mind.
So the smell is that strong, huh? My uncle used to mess with this stuff in his garage workshop for some reason... not baking, but something with leather maybe. The whole house would reek for hours like cleaning products. Makes me wonder, like paulnguyen said, if the wrong chemical would smell even worse. I'd open every window if I were you.
