These were right from the factory but they wee not made by RR or Bentley. The trick he with this tool is to figure out who made it. And find one of their catalogs and see what else thy made. john robles wrote: > The Columbia..Grand?? The one shaped like a piano came with a little drawer > with tools in it.

Maybe the hex wrench part fits Victor reproducer jamb nuts but the rest of it would be fairly useless. Everything on this fits on a Columbia reproducer.
