    This actually has me wondering: I just ordered a framework 16 that’ll ship out in 5y (ok like 3mo, but FUUUU-), but what are the torque specs on the screws in all the various innards I may need to replace or upgrade? Lowest my screwdriver can go is 10 in/lbs.

        I’m sure there are all sorts of cases where, if you really care, it matters quite a bit to get that extra 15 minutes of life out of the component by reducing vibrations with the perfect torque.

        But in reality yeah, snug is fine, and if it’s a really vibrate-y component with solid materials maybe you can upgrade that to tight.

          I assume the framework stuff comes with instructions. Unless you’re stubborn, skilled, or some combination, rtfm haha. That’s how I live my life.

            If it does I’ll read it! I used to be a non manual reader but I’ve fucked too much shit up haha.
