    Look on YouTube for Jack Rowe turnscrews.
    He will show you how to make some

    My old boss had a pachymar set. Got them from the local RFD.

    Or these http://www.henrykrank.com/index.php?...&cPath=116_155

    I got this set. Bloody expensive, but they are used every day and work every time. You can't put a price on that.

    I wanted the Pachmayr set but they were OOS everywhere when I finally got around to buying them!

    Mine is a Brownells Magna-Tip set, with extra bits from an old B-Square set, a few random other bits (eg torx bits, which I hate with a vengeance), and a Grace 9-piece set of turnscrews.

    Just looked these up on e b a y. Astonished at what they cost, especially given that these days they must be made in China.

    I have a feeling that you can find the same things for much less if they are marketed as general tools, rather than special gunsmith tools. Anyone know?
