	I almost mentioned the same thing.  I have had an Oryx (English if I
remember right) for over 40 years; runs on 6 volts and has a number of
tiny tips which slip, not screw, on the body.  Used it when I used to be
brave enough to work on meters and wanted to unsolder the springs.  I
assumed those had been out of existence for years.
