Looking for good quality reproduction nipple wrench, screwdriver combination tools for the CW era Enfield and Springfield (my Springfield is a 1861 Colt special) tried Lodgewood and Dixie Gus works with no luck.
what other vendors should I try?

S&S Firearms. Especially with the US M1855 or M1863 tool I would spend the extra money and buy an original. The finish and metal quality is better.
Original Enfield tools are considerably more expensive than US pattern tools, so you might consider a reproduction on that end, unless you are prepared to drop a couple hundred dollars on a serviceable original.
A US pattern tool should work on both guns though...
You might also be served by inquiring with my buddies over at Agents Campbell & Pelican if you are interested in original gun tools. They have quite a bit of expertise in them.

I checked S&S. They listed everything I wanted, but they were all out of stock.
I ordered some reproduction tools from track of the wolf. I was able to get an original worm and ball puller for my 1861 Springfield and an original worm for a 1842 Springfield locally.
Still looking for some original tools, I will check Campbell and Pelican.

Agree with @Grayrock Volunteer. I don’t have these rifle muskets but one of my Sons has both. He has the original tools.
