Mike:

Last week I spotted a neat 4-in-1 miniature screwdriver for sale at the checkout 
counter of the local hardware store. It is about the size of a Sharpie marking pen 
and has a pocket clip. Included are two very small flat-bladed screwdrivers and 
two very small Phlllips. The case is a tough plastic, but the reversible bits are 
metal and appear to be precision ground. The price was only $3, and I could not 
resist. I am very pleased with my purchase.

The label on it says Enderes Tools. I could not find this particular tool on their 
web site, but an internet search did turn it up on eBay. I expect it is being 
marketed as a promotional item.

I'm in need of a very small phillips screwdriver, but haven't been able to find 
actual dimensions of them and I don't know what size a "#0" would be, etc.  I 
thought someone on this board might have some advice.  The slots in these 
screws are .064" or 1.63mm.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!
