    I think the flat spoon came from Harbor freight years ago. A set of 6 various ones. Have been handy.
    Years ago, I silver soldered 1/4 " of a bolt thread on a tool. You could thread the nut a turn or so, hold it in place and go the other way to run the nut onto the hard to reach stud. Thinking about it now, I may make another as it was very handy.
