Who sells a nonconducting screwdriver? About the size of a paper clip
with its end filed to screwdriver shape, but nonconducting.

I need it to turn a pot that doesn't like to be shorted to ground,
poked at through a metal chassis hole.

I remember transparent plastic rods with screwdriver ends from long
ago, but don't know what word to search on.

Like an alignment tool? Radio Shack still sells them, although now
they're made with a anti-static (slightly conducting) nylon, which I
don't like so much as the old ones. Of course, I'm working mostly on
boatanchors. I keep my broken alignment tools and file new tips for
special jobs.

Hobby shops and hardware stores may have suitable plastic rod which you
can file a tip on.

Maybe you can take a plastic tube from a pen and glue a metal tab in the
end.
