A mid-sized Philipps screw driver (one where the "head" part isn't larger than the shaft) works as well. If your tool is a bit smaller than the hole, no big deal. The torque shouldn't be high - no need to crank this down.

Or get a piece of steel rod at a hardware store. -- Jan Heine, Seattle Editor/Publisher Vintage Bicycle Quarterly c/o Il Vecchio Bicycles 140 Lakeside Ave, Ste. C Seattle WA 98122 http://www.mindspring.com/~heine/bikesite/bikesite/
