About 25 years ago I bought a cheap little spoke key.................
Still got it and use it to build my indistructi-wheels
EDIT: I'll post a pic later if I get chance, just to show how basic it is. It goes everywhere with me so has done thousands of miles too.

Me - So what brings you here then?
Stuart - The midges.
Me - Oh - are you studying them?
Stuart - No, I think they are studying me. They keep taking lots of tiny blood samples from me, (pause). What brings you here then?
Me - Oh, just a bike ride.
Stuart - Just a small one then?
Me - yes, something like that.
Stuart - Just the 1 lap?
Me - Probably, not decided yet.
