    Hi all

    I'm after a very small micro precision screwdriver set.

    One with bits that can open a small tri-wing bit.

    I'd like to get a torx bit smaller than T4 as well.

    Rolson used to do a lovely set in a grey plastic case.

    The bits were at the end of a long shaft of about 3cm length.

    I'm looking on ebay at the moment, but can't find anything small enough.

    Thanks


    EDIT: I found a the set from Rolson on Ebay :)

    It is called a "28 peice Gaming tool kit" and is generally
    used for working on games consoles i.e. Xbox, Nintendo, PS3 etc.
    I bought this set for €23 including delivery from the UK.

    Here is a description from the Rolson website :

    I'd also like to hear Boardsie's experiences and recommendations on precision screwdrivers, especially PH00 & PH000.
    Quality seems very hit and miss. I bought 2 rolson sets in Maplins last year, one of which is still intact while the other had soft tips which didn't last a week.
