[Elecraft] Heathkit Tool.

[Eric J]

Very handy. It was called a Nut Starter. All mine became too worn to use. I tried soda straws of different diameter and they sort of work for awhile, but they tend to split. Turns out Mouser.com has them for about 2 bucks. Search for Menda, the manufacturer or "Nut Starter". I had them throw one in on a previous order. Looks the same only black so probably the original mfr.

Menda might private brand them with "Elecraft" as a promotional giveaway at trade shows or something...

Years ago I built a Heathkit SB101 and other smaller projects. Normally they
would include a very a handy tool.  It's a plastic, what I call, a "nut
holding" tool.  Keeping it all these years I found it to be very handy while
assembling my KPA500, KAT500 and K3S.
