[pianotech] Screw head

[John Ross]

Not lucky enough to have Harbor Freight up here, but I always go there when I visit.
Thanks.

  Hi John,


  Here are three cheap security bit sets from the King of Cheap (Harbor Freight):

  I don't know if the pictures are clear enough for you to tell if the bit you want might be included. The first, bigger kit lists spline bits (kit lists spline bits, kit lists spline bits, she sells seashells, whatever).

    I looked for a chart like that. Thanks.
    It doesn't seem to be any of these.
    I thought it was Torx, but none of my Torx fitted.
    I should have counted the points.  They were more than the Torx, and finer.
    I had 8 sizes of Torx and none fitted.
    I just thought of what it might have been. A spline wrench might have 
    worked.
    I remember them from working on electronic organs, but the organ ones were 
    smaller.
