Here's a simple tool, a microwave magnetron magnet inside a plastic mint container. Works great and easy to clean off, I've got several scattered about the shop and vehicles. Can you say microwave magnetron magnet really fast 3 times?

Cool, I have to get one of those. Well, I have plenty of the magnets, but none of those mint containers. My magnets don't look like yours, same shape, but all fuzzy and gritty....hmmm.
I retrieved a couple of magnets off the grain chute on grinder/mixers (farm). Laid one on my workbench and they'll grab anything that comes close to them. Too strong actually. Laid a horseshoe on one and had a heck of a time getting it off. Slide it sideways maybe ? Ha
No more fuzzy magnets after you use one of these.Quote:

I will have to keep my eyes peeled for a small plastic container (or a few) now, lol.
