Picture the scene – you’re all ready to get down and dirty on a do-it-yourself project, grab your trusty wrench, and… realize the bolt is too narrow to be grabbed by the wrench.

Use coins to close the gap on a too-narrow bolt

Don’t just use that as an excuse to give up and go watch some TV instead, though. The solution is as simple as rounding up loose change, literally. Simply slip coins in the gap between the wrench and whatever you’re trying to grab with it, filling up as much of the extra space as you need.
