Ultra thin screwdriver

wrote: Hi folks, I am looking for a flat screwdriver with an exceptionally thin blade, for use on clock mechanisms. The blade needs to be at least 3/16" long, but no more than 25/1000" thick. Does anyone know of a source for such a screwdriver? UK sources are preferred, if anyone knows of them. I know I can try grinding my own, but I'm not convinced I can do it neatly. Follow-ups set to rec.crafts.metalworking. Many thanks, Chris Tidy I know it's not what you want to hear, but I ground one from a very small Allen key, took only seconds to do. And I'm by no means a good engineer (ie not time-served) Ideally, use a T handled Allen key to produce a really nice little screwdriver. Works well for me. Karen If you can't be a good example, then you'll just have to be a horrible warning.' Catherine Aird |
