Why not convert the numbers to what you need for your metric wrench?

I purchased one from Sears, unfortunately 25 inch pounds in the lowest
setting so I will be returning it and looking for a new one also. Too bad
because the Craftsmen looked like a good wrench.

Cliff,
I have the same problem here in metric Australia, but bought a 10-200 in lb
deflecting beam torque wrench made here in Oz by Warren and Brown. Check out
http://www.warrenandbrown.com.au <http://www.warrenandbrown.com.au> and
also www.justtools.com.au <http://www.justtools.com.au> , expect to pay
around US$100 or so. I am very happy with my torque wrench, seems to be very
precise and beautifully made. It has a definite indication of torque limit
when a definite click is heard and a pin extends from the body. Its fairly
small, not too bad at getting into small places.
I tried looking at European made stuff, about the same quality for over
US$220. The Avery wrench is the less precise click type, and I suspect it's
an Asian import, if it were US made (better quality) Avery would probably
say so in the catalog. I am happy to be proved wrong.

I'm getting ready to place the skins on the horizontal stabilizer and the plans
have you "Rivet HS-404 and HS-405 to the front spar" before you start riveting
the skins on. If this is true how do you get to the HS-707 nose rib with the
bucking bar after you have done one side?
Looks like it's out of sequence but all Vans' told me was that that haven't had
any complaints regarding this. Am I reading this wrong?
Know what I like about reading plans? Nothing......not a damn thing! :-)
Cheers, Happy Holidays everyone!

as I recall just leave out the most inboard rib until you have it bucked.

Karie,
If my memory serves me correctly, Vans shows a bit of ingenuity here
with the way the HS skeleton fits into the skin. The 707 will be
riveted to the skin first, sort of as a bracing point for the rest of
the skeleton, and because you wouldn't be able to buck the -3.5 rivets
if the 702 front spar were there...
Anyway, you rivet the 707 to the skin first, then the rest of the
skeleton goes in behind. In the end, you'll blind rivet the 702 front
spar to the 707 nose rib.
Drop me a line directly if this doesn't make any sense...I've got some
pics I could send you.
