My Krups expresso machine is broken and while I can get the necessary spare I can't find the screwdriver I need to open it up. In the UK I have seen kits of these specialist/security screwdrivers (hex, pin hex, star etc.) - has anyone seen them for sale here?

I would be grateful for any ideas.

DIY shop in Karakum, on main road opposite the butcher, sells Black and Deckers sets of screwdriver bits.

You can't buy the full range of electrical/security bits here that you're likely to need. You need to order from internet and either have delivered here or get someone to bring out for you.

Unfortunately 2labs offer didn't work out but then I went to pay for my PO Box at Lapta post office and dropped in to the yapi market a few doors along. Surprisingly they had 4 different sets to show me, 2 sets of bits only and 2 sets with interchangeable handles. Eventually I bought a nice set by Rico with a handle and 37 different bits for 19tl - so you can get them here!
