Has anyone considered 3D printing the tool? Given the correct dimensions, I could whip out a CAD model for you in a few minutes.
I did this example in about 10 minutes:
Shapeways is the #1 3D printing service company. Working with over a million customers since 2007 - Get 3D products and parts delivered to over 100 countries.
You're looking at ~$20 from Shapeways, but I'm not familiar with the quality of their materials.
Solid Concepts has higher quality DMLS materials available. Their customer service is excellent, and they could probably direct you to the best option. They'll be a little more expensive, but you get what you pay for... their part should hold up better. Their quantity discounts are fairly substantial, from prior experience. http://www.solidconcepts.com/materials/dmls-materials/
Just something to consider... let me know if you need any help with a CAD model.

I may make a separate thread on this, but here is some info.
After some searching for a better priced socket, found this:
30 Euro, minus VAT came out to 24.95. Another 10% off thanks to a coupon code from their FB page:
So 22.69 Euro is about $28 US.
The shipping cost to US is 35 Euro, which is more than the cost of the socket.
In retrospect, I should have bought a couple, but I was worried that it may not fit. It fits.
**Edit. I ordered two more.
TL, DR $70 shipped for the OZ socket. Arrived in 10 days.Last edited by zoo; 12-26-2014, 08:30 PM.

So this tool will fit into the 7mm bolts even though it says it's for 8mm?

OZ only uses one size, and this socket fits it.
To anyone in the US, I can rent a socket out if you do not feel like buying it.Last edited by zoo; 01-04-2015, 12:18 PM.
