Gonna make a screw driver.

Small dividing head, ball nosed end mill, and some drill rod.

T&C grinder, indexer, and some drill blank. I think a
triangular shape might work.

Any other ideas?

Maybe bundle five pieces of music wire with an appropriate spacer in
the middle. They could be silver soldered or perhaps held in a pin
vise collet.
