Hi All.

Is there such thing as a spoke screwdriver? This would basically be a standard slot screwdriver with a small channel to accomodate the end of a spoke.

I'm trying to UNbuild a set of wheels. Unfortunately, when I try to loosen the nipples with a spoke wrench, the spoke turns too. So instead of the nipple screwing off the spoke, it just torques the spoke. I'd like to avoid snipping.

Thanks
