yeah, that does help alot, I am going to try a crazy idea of mine, where i will take a drinking straw, and place the TORX bit at the end, and fill it with Quick-Set glue\cement\sand and see if it hardens up enough to make a basic screw driver to use, if i attach a large wrapping of duct tape to the end to make a handle, it may just work, otherwise i will be making a trip to the hardware store to get a Torx15 and a foot long phillips, and probably cut the end off right there in the store, and super-glue or epoxy the tip on (I'm too lazy to borrow a welding torch)
