The needle plate is clean, smooth (except for needle nicks), and probably usable as is - right enough for me.
The screwdriver was actually left here by public service guy doing some inspection. I tried to contact him to let him know where it was, but he never got back to me. I thought I saw one at Harbor Freight called a right angle ratchet screw driver. I think some other places call it offset ratcheting screwdriver. This one is about an inch tall and with the bit is 1 5/8" tall. The knurled wheel can be removed and a socket put on.
