[Drake] Cleaning tube sockets?

I'd probably just use the tubes themselves. Put a little bit of De-oxit on
the pins with a Q-tip and push the tubes in and out of the sockets a few
times. Use very little on each pin so you don't soak the tube socket wafer.

Hello all,
	While refurbishing my 2B I discovered moving tubes around contacts
were made and lost in the tube sockets.  I have some De-ox and want to clean
the sockets.  What's the best item to use to get into the sockets with the
De-ox?
	Also I discovered that those nice chrome screws used to hold
computer cases on fit just fine on the terminal strip of the back of the
2B...FYI 73...Ted, K8AQM
