Default Screwed up screw holes

More years ago than I can remember I came across a little kit for
restoring screw holes. It was particularly handy for moving a strike
plate for a door latch. The kit had a tapered bit to drill a hole that
accepted a plug shaped like the sharpened end of a pencil. (it also
included a pencil shaped piece of wood that could be sharpened in a pencil
sharpener and used as a plug.)
I've lost it, looked in all the catalogs I have and am beginning to wonder
if I dreamed it.
Anyone familiar with the device?
