I am looking for what we used to call "swizzle sticks." They are
screwdrivers for adjusting multi-turn trim pots. They were plastic
sticks with metal blades which were shrouded in a plastic sleeve to keep
them from slipping off the screw. Any idea where to get them or what the
proper term is?

Do a Google search for trim pot tool or trimmer adjustment tool.

Digikey seems to carry several types.


Thank you. It's a lot easier if one knows the proper term. You can
guess what would happen if one searches for "dykes" instead of diagonal
cutters.
