Is not going to happen maybe ever

As for the OP and his tool, well thats one of the reason I dont have a torque wrench. Been doing it by feel since I remember because with some stuff even with the torque wrench it is a lot of torque the one specified by the manufacturers. For example the famous 5 in/lb in stems... thats a huge amount or torque

I say, get carbon paste, use that and tight the stuff by feel, with the carbon paste you dont need to be worried about applying too little torque. Because just with a fraction of the torque the parts wont go nowhere.
