Nice, i tight them pretty strong! your about right, they need to be tight
enough so they don't rotate. Me, i use an cordless drill with a clutch, i
set the clutch at about 10. Well, you do one, test it and your set for all
the others.

Hats off and thanks!

- is there a rule of thumb to gauge what's tight enough but not too tight?
Should they be just tight enough to not rotate freely by hand?  Other?
