I picked up a used baton at the flea market today for $3. The handle is held to the body of the baton with a large square drive screw. The screw seems tight but the handle is loose so I need to take it off and see what the problem is. My first issue is I measured the drive and its like 13/64". a quarter inch drive will not fit and my #3 square bit spins. None of my torqs or hex wrenched will fit, either too big or too small. After a little research I think I need a #4 Robertson bit. I fugured I couled find one local but no dice. In fact I am having  hard time finding one on line. WTF? Anyone know of an easy way to get out a #4 Robertson screw of know where I can find a bit without spending too much more then I spent on purchasing the baton??

Cheap 1/4" extension, file to fit?

yeah, I may have to go that route. I will pick up a cheap POS from Harbor Freight if I do it.

Easy out.
Then replace it with something normal.

Might as well pick up a set that has wrenches as well.  When you need to bend a wrench with a torch so it'll fit in some weird location, you won't have to make another trip.



That is also the set you loan out or keep in the truck.
