Like how much value?
I just want to see how bad my parents are.
They never buy me anything I want, and in total it's usually under 50$,
oh and Im a boy and 12,



Answer
Oh they often spend thousands and they should spend that on you too (NOT!)

I have friends that give their four children everything they want for this silly Holiday. Well they never really recover from the debt, and I saw a notices on there door all year like Water Termination Notices from the City, Natural Gas shut off, Electric shut-off and two separate eviction notices from their apartment.

Last week all of the kid's so coveted toys and games were on the side walk out front from the landlord dumping it outside. All the neighborhood kids were gathering toys, computers and games, bikes etc.

What is the Difference between a torque wrench and a socket wrench? Are they the same thing?

I am putting together a mountain bike that I bought ( just getting into it). The directions say to use a torque wrench. Not all that knowledgeable about hand tools. Trying to get information before buying the wrench.


Answer
A socket wrench is like a small steel tube - one end has ridges that fit precisely around a bolt. The other end often has an opening of 1/4", 3/8", or 1/2" square. This end receives the protruded part of a ratchet with the same dimension.

Most torque wrenches look like a larger version of a ratchet -- in fact, it often also has a ratchet mechanism.

The purpose of a torque wrench is to measure the precise amount of pressure you use to tighten down a bolt. Generally, you do this by placing a Socket wrench for the bolt size in question onto a Torque wrench. You will then dial (usually on the handle end) to the amount of torque the specification calls for -- usually in Foot lbs or Inch lbs.

Affix the bolt receiving end to the bolt and tighten, clockwise. You will hear a clicking sound when you have reached the indicated torque.

Again, a Torque wrench is used to measure the precise amount of pressure(torque) applied to a bolt. This is usually done to assure you do not over-tighten the bolt and thereby strip threads AND/OR assure you do not under-tighten and the bolt gets loose while you are operating the bike(a rather dangerous situation).

A torque wrench can cost over $50.00, and you will likely rarely use it. You might just tighten the noted nuts/bolts firmly, then take it to a local bike shop and ask if it is tightened enough. They might take a torque wench to it to check it out. However, experienced assemblers generally just firmly tighten --unless it's a high-end bike.

There are less expensive -- but less precise --torque wrenches available. You would still affix a socket wrench on it. Difference: instead of a dial adjuster on the handle with the audible click, it has a floating pointer that points to the measurement imprinted at the head of this wrench.

If you do decide to buy a torque wrench, they are available at Sears, Home Depot, and probably at most large auto parts stores(Pep Boys, Kragen, etc). Some of these auto parts stores might even allow you to rent one.
You can also buy the needed socket wrench at these same stores.
