Default Unique Need for Torx/Star bits.

Larry, that was the epiphany that I had earlier. I was just trying to save
money instead of buying 50 to 100 bits. I don't need to extend them, I need
to saw them off.

Gunner,

I only need to turn some Torx head screws. I need to turn ten of the
screws
per each tool.

Maybe, I can use hexagonal or square stock, as you suggest.

Every suggestion gets me to thinking and I learn that way.

Thanks for the food for thought.

How about buying some standard length Torx bits and
solder/braze/welding them to extensions the length you need?
