I have no idea where I got these and can't find them online.
The ones pictured are for my Emmons: I now need a 3/32" wrench for my new Williams.
Does anyone know of a source for these?Picture file

They look good, Richard!
What's that brand-name on them? I can't quite see it and I'm not sure what to use as a search-term.

Not what you are looking for but these help. Unfortunately they are custom items 3dprinted. |

Those smooth handle Hex and screwdriver sets, Shown in Mr. Sinkler's post, Are usually found in zippered flat case. They are used by many, Working on the hardware of computers.
I have a set of long Hex wrenches, From my days working in the Light Bulb industry, They are very handy working on bell cranks and down through the pull rods of a steel guitar. |

Another valuable tool I have in my arsenal is this thin, small ratchet made by Chapman. Any 1/4" bits will work. I bought a complete set many years ago for around $50+. Whole sets are expensive , but individual parts are reasonable.

I converted my Carter E9 neck to the barrels with set screws that Bill Lipscome used to make, to replace the dog bones. Couldn't afford to do my C6 neck. This ratchet allows me to get in between the rods to access the set screws. One of my most valuable tools for working on both my Carter and Deckley. I carry the ratchet and bits to fit my guitar in my pak-a-seat.
