If you can take a photo of the fitting and screws along with measurements...bring the photo to a local hardware store. They'll find the right tool for you. You may be better off purchasing the tool (and labeling it's use) for future use!

Hi Folks,
I have an exhibtion fixture (a plexiglass box mounted on a pedestal) that I am unable to dismantle, because I don't have the proper tool.  It was made at another site, no one seems to know where, before I was hired.  I would like to purchase, or better  yet borrow, a tool to open this case so that it can be moved safely to another location in the museum.  Does anyone have any leads for me to follow on this?  It has a pattern on it like this: four round holes at the perimeter of the screw head, segmenting the circle into quarters.. . this sounds like something I would hear on the Car Guys on NPR!  whirrrrrrrr....
thank you.
