Apologies in advance for the flippant comment. I've always gone with the adjust until bind, and then back off a tad method also.

Me too, I tighten the bolts till they strip then loosen them a bit

 

As you say, better to have steering a little tight than a little loose.

When I replaced the ones in earlier post the steering felt a little weird for a while, no longer crunchie.

 

Strange to say I didn't notice anything wrong until a dribble of rusty water came out one day

It didn't actually fall apart, I destroyed it getting off.

I mean, you normaly can't tell a badly paid line worker "just make it right", they need some objective guideline.

Perhaps a length of al dente pasta wrapped around one of the fork legs, should be able to tug the forks one way, and then the other without breaking if properly adjusted ..?

Haha - quantifying "a tad" and "al dente" uses the same scale!
