ages ago when faced with a pile of nuts and bolts to clean/blast
I got hold of a 4"x18" 1/4" thick metal plate and had 5 each of 5 sizes 
of NC and NF nuts welded to one side, and on the other side I had 5 each 
of 5 sizes of NC and NF short bolts welded to this plate.

(NC = National course,  NF = National Fine)

for bolts, screw your assortment into the nuts on the plate until full 
or you're out of ones to clean and blast away,  ditto on the other side, 
just thread the various nuts onto the bolt threads sticking up from the 
plate and Ta-Da clean stuff. with out having to blast fingers or toes. 
The plates heavy enough to stay in place as you work on your fasteners.
