I just logged my 500th wire termination and realized something about my old habits
It hit me that for years I was over-torquing every single D-sub connector, probably from a mix of nerves and bad early training. Now I keep a calibrated torque driver right on my bench and check it monthly. Anyone else have a simple habit they had to unlearn that saved a ton of time?

Spot on. This is the exact same thing as @gray_patel with the screws. It's a bigger problem where people just use muscle memory instead of the right tool. You see it everywhere, from guys cranking down oil filters to death to people forcing a screw because they picked up the wrong driver. That little bit of extra force never helps and usually just breaks something.
