T-handle and ball end - that's pretty much exactly the opposite of what's on the market. Good luck to you.

bondhus makes then but not in all sizes, im looking for 1/16 or a 1.5mm or .05. thanks anyway for the reply, i ended up buying 2 sets from this guy on ebay, he had a set of bondhus black rubber handles not the T, with yelllow tips and they were ball end and also a set of 6 of Integy Ti-Nitride hex for 20$ bucks. BUT you were right it was definetly hard trying to find what i was looking for if they even made them.

I've have a lot of tools from here: http://www.wihatools.com/default.htm

On a side note, T-Handles and ball ends don't mix well. You have to be very careful of the torque you give it to prevent stripping. All of my ball drivers are narrow handled with a fingertip wheel.

I only use ball end hex wrenches if there's nothing else that will fit. Those things strip and break way too easy.

Try industrial supply houses like mscdirect.com, jlindustrial.com, you can usually find all kinds of stuff that you local hardware store doesn't have.
