I found a nail set like this at the first tag sale of the season Friday after work. I found it interesting enough to buy and thought it was a bargain for $2. The first one I have seen. The pic is from the web, I did not take the time to photo it myself. The two ends are two different sizes.

Pretty cool; there are similar Japanese nailsets, I believe. Good find.
It's interesting, in that it's similar in general design to the (now discontinued) General Tools offset screwdriver (top in picture):

But Millers Falls bent the design slightly to provide more finger clearance as you held it.
Now I need to start watching for one. Dang it, Moses! Just when I think my shop's complete!
By the way, I really appreciate your Sandra Bullock quotes. She's a wise woman.

+1 on that.By the way, I really appreciate your Sandra Bullock quotes. She's a wise woman.
She is one of my favorite actors, it made me feel warm & fuzzy when she won an Oscar.
On nail sets, the Millers Falls version looks like a good one to have for use in tight places.
