Does anybody have a picture of the original bracket nut wrench that came with a 1910-vintage Fairbanks Whyte Laydie banjo?
A friend had hers confiscated by Heathrow airport security, which was a major bummer. I'd like to see if I can make a duplicate. Even a pencil sketch, if you know what they looked like, woulld help.

I have used drum head wrenches on many banjos

Finding a wrench that will work is not a problem. I want to duplicate the appearance of an original.
