.32 Crockett rifle cone wrench question

[Flintlock Whiskey]

Does anyone know offhand which nipple/cone wrench can be used for this gun? The one I had for 40+yrs is somewhere in the Sonoran Desert as I type this. Anyone who knows/owns this rifle knows that where the cone is situated is a pretty tight fit to get to it.

I have a wrench for the nipple. It is a normal nipple wrench that has the outside grinded down on the nipple end of the wrench. Someone did the grinding for me and I don't know what tool was used to do it. The end of the wrench is now small enough to fit but still strong enough to turn the nipple.

I took a normal nipple wrench, removed the handle, chucked it in my small lathe and turned it down to fit. Grinding as Stub said would work to.

I'm able to snug it down or remove it with a small 3/16" open end wrench that I have.

I'm using open-end wrenches for my T/C guns. I have some actual T/C tools around here someplace, but they are... um.... misplaced. I have seen 1/4" drive sockets modified to work with some nipples. Kind of thinking about making some myself next summer.

I use a #10 pistol nipple wrench on mine. The T post kind.

I hope that works well because I have purchase two different nipple wrenches for my Crockett Rifle and none work. My T/C wrenches somewhat work but not like the need to. I've been using a 3/16" open end wrench but it too, is not the right tool for the job.
