I just wrote a short update about this, complete with a photo of the handrail and bolt example that Tomas Gonzalez-Torres shared during the briefing: Flying off the handle, revisited
This is about five kinds of awesome.

Adding vice grips, bolt pullers and a crescent wrench (shifting spanner) to the tool caddy for the next EVA.
Getting ready for some heavy wrecking

Update of the Spectrograph tested both minds and muscles.
120 screws to remove. A handle prevented the removal of one screw.
Video of pulling the handle off at Goddard pretty impressive. Must have been fun on the telescope.
The replacement spectroscope is working well.
Overall a fantastic effort. 99% success.
First big challenge tomorrow is the batteries.
Then the fine guidance sensor.

Then a background video on the FGS and the NOBL. Believe the new insulation material should last more than 20 years in space weather.
