Default Pilot Screw Tool

I sincerely apologize if this has been covered in the past or the information is somewhere else.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a home-made pilot screw tool?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the reply. The mixture screws on the middle two carbs are on the bottom of the carb and hard to get to. Honda calls out a special tool in their shop manual. A motorcycle mechanic showed me his. It is a long, skinny tool with a right angle drive at the very end with a flat blade screwdrive tip facing up. He said you could buy one on-line. I wondered if anyone ever made one.

Thanks,

Steven

Not done it myself , obviously , but it sounds like a pretty simple thing to make as you've seen it already.
