The tool in question needs to have a flexible shaft (approx 160mm in length)
screwdriver type handle and changeable heads preferably
the head socket has to have an outside diameter of 12mm or less
needs to have 8mm ''nut spinner'' head
and to make this even more bizarre...
a 2.5mm hex/allen key head ideally
(a compromise to the hex would be the equivalent torx)
it is for a range of equipment with hard to access points
ideally all in one tool
but can be 2 separate tools
please help
any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated :rolleyes:

surprise surprise i had to get 2 tools to do the job but both spot-on
the flexible shaft screwdriver set (3 of) is amazing although they are so long they look a bit comical
got assorted bits for them they work a treat
also got sorted with some folding hex and torx key sets and some supermini spanners all from CPC even better next day delivery
i'm a happy chappy
bring on the weekend!
