The tool can't cost more than $5, its a triple square, you should be able to buy a set of three that has the ones for the axles, the head bolts and the starter bolts (only on very few models) for under $15 from any tool store.

the 4 pack is around $20 at c-tire. Don't ask the guys at the desk though, they are useless on this one. It's a power fist item and is in the specialty section usually (at c-tire). It includes the ones for head bolts :D
