I need one of these for a tight space; what is it called? Tried searching: Phillips wrench, phillips key, phillips L-shaped, etc...

one of them goofy screwdrivers I have about 10 of in my tool box with no use for ..
oh a little tip for using one to keep it from popping out of the phillips cross put a little toothpaste like colgate on the tip as it fills it in and the grit prevents it from slipping out , the toothpaste washes off without damage . or you can use real fine valve lapping compound . but it takes solvent to remove it .

Polishing or rubbing compound works also, at least about as well as anything else... (which is to say that nothing really works great with those things)

I think the proper name of it is the engineers revenge device . I only had to use one on some moulding on a car a long time ago , like I said I have about 10 of the things in the screwdriver drawer from all the sets I have boughtover the years , wait hold on .. damn I think one is pregnant ...
