Trav Registered: 11/20/06 Posts: 18230 Loc: MA, Mittelfranken.de	Proto makes them. This is one but they have them shorter, flex in common drive sizes. I have one it is made by Facom, its good, they also have some in the Blackhawk line and possibly others. https://www.mscdirect.com/product/details/77184497 _________________________ ASE L1, Master.
