    I heard someone saying something along the lines of “a bolt is tightened until the thread breaks and then half a turn back”

    Some really take that as an advice

      Pretty sure I heard AvE say “tighten it 'til you hear the crack, then back it off a quarter turn” in one of his videos ;'D

        I’m personally a fan of “that bolt has ugga’ed its last dugga.”

        Another one we said in my old shop was “Tighten till it loosens, then back off half a turn”

      It’s a quarter twist before snapping of.
