I'm not as coordinated as David. I use the "2 at a time" technique. Hold 2
bottom bolts in while flipping board over, drop on spacers, bracket and
secure 2 nuts loosely. The last two spacers are installed one at a time
holding them in place with hemostats or needlenose pliers while pushing the
bolt through.
