Hi Jack. 
   WOW......... is there anything you don't know  about?  I don't have the 
wrench but the guys apparently tune with  something.  Maybe an Oklahoma speed 
wrench?

Hello Dale,
 
   The  Brinsmead  does have a tuning system in
principal  like Mason Screw Stringer. However
that is where the similarity ends.
 
  In a  Brinsmead  the string go in to the end of  the
screw  and comes out the side about half way up.
It then laps over the top end  (in a groove) and 
comes down the other side. A smooth cap then 
covers the screw head and the string. 
  
  The cap comes off and the square screw head  
can be tuned. The size of the screw head is 10 mm.
 
 The  Brinsmead like the  Mason carries its own 
special tuning lever.  Don't lose that lever

 I had to have one made

Good luck and enjoy,
 
Jack Wyatt
