DOITOOLTelescoping Magnetic Pick Up Tool, Magnetic Grabber Tool, Magnet Stick with Comfortable Handle, Retrieving Sweeper Magnetic Rod

Brilliant idea - even picks up aluminium.

I bought this to replace a similar item that was over 30 years old that went missing when a workmate left!!! Was planning on using it for 2 roles, 1st pick nails out of scrap wood ash in the log fire which it does well enough and 2nd to clear swarf from machines in a workshop which it struggles with if the chips are plentiful or large, just not a strong magnet. As an indication it will not hold itself to the underside of a metal shelf. It works but could be better.
