#GunsmithingTools

Welcome everyone to the  TFB Armorer’s Bench! As mentioned in the little blurb below, this series will focus on a lot of home armorer and gunsmith activities. In this article, I decided to take you guys along with me for another closer look at some tools I picked up at SHOT 2024. Wheeler was once a sponsor of TFB Armorer’s Bench so I made sure to stop by and say hello and thank you and when they were showing me the new stuff they handed me their newish F.A.T. Stix Preset Torque Wrench Set. I have had the chance to use these a couple times now so let’s dive into the F.A.T. Stix Preset Torque Wrench Set and give it a closer look!

Welcome to TFB Weekly Amazon Deals 7: National Roller Coaster Day. Roller coasters are fun, perhaps not quite as fun as firearms though. However, these days I feel like we are often on a roller coaster within the firearms industry. With items like the Rare Breed FRT-15 being unceremoniously declared a machine gun by the ATF and the current ongoing struggle within the ammunition industry, gun owners seem to always be on the cusp of oblivion. That brings us to the theme of today’s deals – chaos. This particular list really has no rhyme or reason aside from the first item – a torque limiter. I don’t like guessing when it comes to inch/pounds torquing and a lot of manufacturers are specifying the correct torque to apply on just about every gun component  – so it’s great to have a reliable and portable torque limiter with you at the range or at home on the bench.

Warren Innovative Technologies has produced a new a handy little tool – the Composite Field Punch. This chopped carbon microfiber punch is made from a durable lightweight material that is said to be as strong as aluminum, making it lightweight enough to carry on your person without much hassle as well as being strong enough to take on most simple punch jobs.
