An easy way to control the bolts when fitting the neck

I expect that everyone and everyone's dog has already figured this, or something even easier, way to hold the bolts through the soundhole and screw into the inserts. JUst in case, I will attach a 1,000 word-worth picture.

Oh and by the way - I turn the bit holder/bit/bolt with my hand, not with a drill. If that wasn't clear.
