Title: gas hob adjusting screw drivers
Post by: roberto on February 04, 2015, 10:29:55 PM

anyone know where I can get a long, small flat head screw driver for adjusting the flame on a gas hob? I need one that is quite long to fit inside the handle shaft...

Pretty sure I got mine at "The Toolshed". Just got them to send it to me. I can remember  at the time thinking how hard it was to find one which is odd because we all need one.

hi guys, amazing what comes upon this site pure information sharing. I purchased this set from `George Henry`in Christchurch but i am sure that they can be found elsewhere. Had to buy the whole set to get the ideal size, cheers
