Kettle Element Torx T10 driver with central dimple

Kettle Element Torx T10 driver with central dimple :evil:
I was just going to take an old kettle apart only to find my regular Torx keys don't fit due to the stupid anti-tamper pip in the centre of the screw!
Anyone know where to get Torx keys with a fecking hole in the end?
Taa :)

I bet the tool costs more that a kettle would :(

Probably!
Its an old kettle my granddad had, think the thermo-knock-off thing was bust so thought I'd re-purpose it.
You are probably right though, cheaper to buy another kettle than a tool for the screws! :D

I've used a small flat headed screw driver before with a small nick ( V ) filed out in the centre to overcome the little 'pip',worked fine and cost me nowt.
