I got thinking about the above .I think the spline bolt head is hardened where as a normal socket head grade 8 screw is not .If I'm correct if that be the case a six point socket might work .Problem solved . Of all collector it's a very small number who would even have McCullochs let alone the few that use those style of .bolts .

It all me back to my memory . It was years ago prior to pay pal on e-bay I bought the spline socket from this lady .Paid for it with a US postal money order and recieved it .About 2 months later I get a PM from her saying I never paid for it .I first put a tracker on it which proved it had been cashed and sent the report plus a picture of the money order for proof .It must have caused her some shame so she sent me another socket plus the wrench of which I never asked for .Evidently for some reason her records were inacurate and for a period of time she was absent from e-bay .--more ---

When McCulloch as a brand went awry massive job lot of parts were sold off and some people had ware houses full of them for maybe a dime on the dollar .I suspect she was one of those people .

Just been going thru old archives in family business and found these.
McCulloch has been in my familyBuffalo_Courier_Express_1953_03_01_42.jpg since since 1949 but this was the first ad they placed in the Buffalo News :)
March 1st 1953
Made me smile
This was my grandfathers business and my dad worked there.
