That would be ok I guess. I normally go for hand tight + 1/4 turn

I've never used a torque wrench on the screen, I just tend to tighten it till it just feels right.

Kawdolph, which bolts did you tighten 1/2 turn? I have a funny feeling that is too much after examining mine last night.

What I will do is retorque mine this weekend and let you know how much they turned from hand tight
