Richard and all,
Please see attached for a list of the Bristol Spline sizes.

    Do you mean Bristol wrenches? The more common hex wrench is the Allen
wrench but star shaped might be Bristol. There are a couple of other shapes.
I looked for a chart on line but could not find one.
    Bristol is still in business and makes L wrench sets, Xelite makes both
kinds in screw driver style sets. The Xelite type has the advantage of long
reach especially with the extension provided in the kit.
    There are other types of wrenches, such as Torx, worth doing more
searching than I did. I know I have seen charts showing the various forms on
line.
