Tool Question

[Neil Morrison]

ISTR seeing one. Looked like a nutdriver with a circular end and two
tips which fit the ring. It may have had a pin to center it. XCelite
would be where I would look first but they seem to have been
swallowed by Cooper.

http://www.hmcelectronics.com usually has the best selection.
