Crash,
I think I wrote back off slightly, as in just crack
them, so that the static friction factor is
eliminated. What you've described is safer, and
thinking about it is probably what I do more often
than not. The backing off before retorqing was what I
was trying to emphasize. Sorry for any confusion.
