Workers use a long-handle wrench in September 1964 to torque down a heavy nut attaching a support for the creeper-derrick track on the north leg. As the arch legs rose, workers would bolt more track onto them so the derricks could rise with the progress of their work. On the way back down, they filled and polished the bolt holes so they are hard to notice. (Post-Dispatch)
