[Boatanchors] Tool query

[J. Forster]

There are special tools for some brands.

Switchcraft made a thing with a screwdriver handle. The business end was a
collet with internally serrateed teeth. Problem is, there is a wide
variety of knurls on the ring nots.

The wrong knurl and it's worse than useless.

You might have some luck wiuth soft-jaw MS connector pliers.
