Stubby multi-bit screwdriver?

[domino]

Has anyone heard of this?

I'm looking for a stubby screwdriver that is also multi bit. I need to be able to attach a socket bit to it to enable me to get into an awkward space (cleaning my espresso machine, actually!)

I can't use a spanner, because the nut is recessed, and it needs to be tightened way more than I can do with pliers. The best I've managed so far is to use a cordless screwdriver that is also angled, but I'd like to be able to hand tighten it too (cordless won't bite when I tighten it by hand).

So, a multi-bit stubby screwdriver would be perfect. Am I digging for the bone that isn't there?

Any sightings (or advice!) much appreciated.

As big-all said socket sets are available with screwdriver type drivers however most are about 4" or 5" long. Some chubby drivers have a square shank which looks about a 1/4", you may be able to grind the screwdriver end off and use one with an ordinary 1/4" socket if your stuck.
