Default Unique Need for Torx/Star bits.

"jusme" wrote:

Hi, members.

I need ~T-10 Torx bit material that runs more than the conventional 3/8"
down the length.

I really need 2 or 3 feet or more lengths. I can't seem to find this
anywhere. If it doesn't exist, does anyone have any suggestions on how to
make it?

I may need 50 pieces at a time.

Thanks

If I understand correctly, you are trying to make extended length torx bits.
If so, just buy some common bits and silver braze to some rod. I drove a
bunch of 5" wood screws a few years ago using a bit I extended that way. The
braze held just fine.
