116X alignment tools

The 116 x chassis has nuts that have to be adjusted during alignment, where can I find a plastic tool for this procedure or what do you use to do this. Metal sockets drive the radio crazy.

Many of us made one from a plastic ballpen, by heating it up and morfing it around a proper size nut or standoff.

Great idea. I've ran into this same problem before.

The ballpoint pen trick worked like a charm, you guys are the best , the 116x is working like a champ.
