Title: Coke machine screw bits
Post by: Gmari2 on February 08, 2015, 09:56:48 pm
Ok guys,
Does anyone know the specific bit required for the security screws found on the late 40s @ 1950's coke machines?
Many thanks.

It's probably a clutch-head bit.   You can pick up a 100-piece set of security bits from Horrible Freight for $10.
