Plier recommendation

[Edit: I originally posted this recommendation in response to Doc B's video about hardware installation - i.e., attaching to the metal chassis plate things like transformers, terminal strips and tube sockets]
Related tool recommendation: "Neji-saurus" (aka "vampire") pliers:

These things are great for getting a good grip on the nut while you tighten things down with a screwdriver or hex key. They are also a godsend for removing screws/bolts with stripped keyholes (star, hex, etc.): they will firmly hold a round head while you unscrew the bolt.
A great tool not just for amp construction, but for general purpose handy-person stuff around the house.
cheers, Derek
