<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It is easy enough to make a brass string settling
rod. Buy a length of 1/4" brass rod from a welding supply shop, cut to length,
and grind the end to shape to fit your combination handle. Alternately, you can
get a screwdriver handle and set the rod in permanently. Quite
inexpensive and quickly done, actually.</FONT></DIV>
