I never saved it thinking it was cool but just another expense. Now I realize that sometimes I just HAVE to keep collecting these toys because ultimately I am going to need them. I cannot find it in the archives. Does ANYONE have these tools or remember the information??????? Thanks for your help.

What I've started doing is to finger tighten the screws and then use my seam ripper to push the last couple turns of the screws. Then I can get the plates off without much trouble.
