I have been given a die head to practice with and have run into a problem with the screw housing which accepts the adjusting screw. I tried a normal flat head screwdriver but it would not work and damaged the housing. So I am imagining a tool which would do a better job but does it already exist and if so what would it be called so I can find a set? See picture :thumbup: Edit: The picture is what I imagine the tip will be like. |

Hi Shipto, Just nipped out to check my el-cheapo set of weird driver bits. Nothing like your pic but if you imagine the reverse of that, i.e. where your mid section protrudes my bit has a cut out - (think two pronged fork) various sizes in this form. Don't ask what this type is called, not a clue. Sorry mate, not a lot of help. John B AKA Swarfnstuff |

We used to use some thing very like that for junction box keys ( small as you say ) many many moons ago in the days of GPO Telephones, in-fact so long ago i can not think what they were called or the real reason for them...Will have a glass or three of wine and a think. Lyn. PS: and a look through my old tool kit ( exchange work i am thinking ) the days of Plessey telecoms... |
