I usually just spread my pickle on some cheese & bread!
Don't need a fork... as for the hammer? :p

the stud is spinning or the nuts spinning? If its the nut spread it with a chisel (air or otherwise) if its the stud jam a pickle fork in there and then cut the nut as explained above. Remove fingers as needed.
