Trevor,

Are you having a bad day?

I said that I need two to three OR MORE FEET.

There is no specific length that I need other that what I specified above
this sentence. Make it 8 feet then, as is implied in "OR MORE".

You ASSume much without the benefit of fact, only guesses. I do not need to
reach down a deep hole.

Again, if you had REALLY read all of the posts, you would have discovered
that I didn't need a "long-reach" Torx bit. I said what I needed in the
very first post.

Also, I asked if anyone could give me some ideas on how to make such an
item/s. I got many great responses and ideas.
I DID NOT ask for a quote, as you seem to think.

Close to your last paragraph where you say that I am wanting some cheap-ass
tool, you again ASSume that I am trying to drive a screw in a deep hole.
Wrong yet again.

And no, I am not at liberty to give anymore information, as I stated, which
you would have known had you read the entire thread as you claim that you
did, when I said it is somewhat proprietary.

So, Trevor, rather than "around" and make ASSumptions, why not REALLY read
the entire thread before you 'go off'.

Oh, and it is not 'we', only me - another ASSumption on your part.

Flame away if you so choose but it is better to simply drop the issue

Trevor, had you read my first post on this issue, you would not have
made your post.

I read the first post. And the subsequent ones. It said you wanted 2-3
foot lenths of Torx bit. Something that is not readilly available, because
it is not used for shafting.

Then you said, and this is a copy and paste from your post...

"But, my need is for short Torx bits hence the need
for long Torx stock so that I could saw them for the length I need."

And also..

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

How long do you need? Overall? This is the issue I had with the whole
deal. If you actually out and say what you need in the end, you are far
more likely to get useable answers. Thus, my comment.

Someone quoted you a resonable price for the stuff that YOU asked for,
considering. Considering especially, that you have no idea how to make it,
nor much of an idea of the likelihood of success in the endeavor.

Then you said that you needed it to be used as a Torx wrench. The
implication of this, to me, is that you are using it to turn a Torx head
screw. Correct, or no?
You need it to reach down a deep hole.

How deep?

Ask the correct questions, and get useful answers!

If you need a long reach Torx driver, they are cheap. If you need a 2 to
3 foot length of Torx profile shafting, they are an expensive custon made
item, not cheap.

So. Clear enough?

You have been beating around the bush, trying to reach an end, by coming
up with stuff that has to be custom made, in order to make some cheapass
short-term use, throwaway tools that you could likely as not buy in pound
boxes. If you would ante up with just a wee bit of useful information,
like, for instance, how deep a hole do you have to drive the screw at the
bottom of, you would very likely not only get an answer, but likely 3 or 4
links to varoius products available.

That's how I am seeing this, in any case.

So. Y'all gonna ante up with some specifics, or just continue blundering
around the hard way?

Cheers
Trevor Jones
