Took the F/Wrench in to work and checked its accuracy, its as good as or better than, any of the top line Qwrenches we use.
That's very good to hear! I like the Fat Wrench because it's compact & easy to use, but have wondered from time to time about accuracy. This certainly sets that to rest.

One thing about the FW worth mentioning here (generally, not to you specifically GunnerySgtJackson) is that the instructions by the manufacturer advise you to ensure it clicks three times, after which the fastener is fully torqued to the specified setting.
