Many hardware stores sell a "jeweler's screwdriver" set which has a
variety of both straight-blade and Phillips screwdrivers in sizes
that would be suitable for dealing with the very small adjustment
screws in sextants. Suggest either bringing the instrument or
making sure you can return the set just in case the screwdrivers are
not what you're looking for.

Greetings All: This isa very mundane question from a rank amateur, but here 'tis: I need several replacement screw drivers as replacement for missing item in "Navigators Plotting Instrument Set": The smaller 2.75" for the W&P and others and a couple of the longer 4" ones for sets made by Lutz Superdyne Inc. And guidance most welcome!
Thanks very much, Richard
