I have an old Moore & Wright micrometer, which needs a little
adjustment to get the zero accurate and maybe strip down for a clean,
unfortunately it came without the little spanner. It is a little over
2" long, with a C at one end, an open ender at the other and I
understand it is standard spanner for all models. I wonder if anyone
might have one surplus to their needs?

I think I might have a few of these in an old toolbox, but different
sizes IIRC. Do you know the barrel and pin hole diameter?

Thanks, but an hour ago I managed to track one down - Mitchell Fox,
Leeds £2.29 each.
