TIL my shop's torque wrench calibration log hit 1,000 entries

I was updating the sheet today and that number just jumped out at me. It's a simple reminder that doing the small, boring task right every single time adds up to real reliability. How often do you guys actually check your clicker wrenches?

Damn, that's a perfect example of what @alicecraig said, the boring stuff is what keeps everything from falling apart.

We check ours quarterly. It's a boring chore but it keeps the work solid.

Quarterly checks are the only way to go. Letting things slide for a year means you're basically starting from scratch every time. Found a whole section of our backup logs that had been failing since May, and we only caught it in September. That boring chore saves your skin.
