I have this one for running around the yard and it works by pulling
the finger grip at the bottom which rotates the magnet inside away

Thanks,I saw one similar but was looking for on that looks like a stick.
I might try diy by putting magnet inside non magnetic tube and
withdrawing it but have to think of some way to stop picked up material
from following magnet up tube.


Gaffer tape over the end of the tube?
