E2 compass adjuster

Does anyone have a surplus adjusting tool for an E2 compass.
Annoyingly, these require a key with a triangular section hole.

I have used the ink tube from a ball point pen, try it!

Thanks for the brilliant suggestion Sam! I had thought about trying to squash a small diam. aluminium tube into a roughly 2mm triangular section, but this sounds more promising and I'll give it a try.

Light Aero charge over £50 for the "proper" tool and that is about £45 too much for my budget!
