I am looking for a screw driver or bit for the SBL 13 Cross Slide and Compound nuts. There is a seller on eBay selling ones that fit the WHO 10, but not for the 13.

I can cluge one up, but don't even have a way to harden the bit. If anyone has made a nice one and willing to make another, I am all ears, willing to pay for one.

I have made custom screwdrivers for special applications by regrinding a stock screwdriver. As long as you proceed slowly with frequent quenching in water, you shouldn't affect the temper.
 
RJ,

Here is what I will modify, it is wise enough.

You could fab one easy with a couple of roll pins or dowel pins. Piece of 3/4" stock about 1/4" should do. Handle can be anything even welded up. Like a pin spanner only smaller. Only need to drill two hole the distance beyond the threads on bolt part.
