Hi Don:
MicroMark has them in a set of 8 with 0.5mm steps so that probably would be ok. I guess I had better stick with the metric set, however, rather than the inch ones.
thanks for info.
regards,
Rance

Dear Rance,

We had to special order nut drivers for the 2-8-0. They are 1.6mm and impossible to find in the US. We still have some if that will work, but I suspect they might be a bit larger.

Hi all:
One of the hex headed machine screws that holds the side/drive rods on
my AM 4-8-4 came loose. I looked for some nut drivers that I thought I
had, but couldn't find them at home (typical). I checked with Micro
Mark and they have a few sets sets, in metric and inch. Has anybody
used either of those and which would be better for the engine side
rods? I assume that the metric would be best since the engines are made
in China - however, maybe the manufacturers (AM, SHS, etc.) might make a
suggestion. Does anyone have any other suggestions besides MicroMark
where I can order them and have them sent to California???
Thanks in advance for any advice.

ps Any suggestions for a loc tite material to hold machine screws in?
Might as well order both together.
