Pickup magnet
I have seen a strong pick up magnet that you can turn on and off about
half a metre long but am having trouble naming it for a google search. It is not electric, it seems to work like like the magnetic bases for dial test indicators. |

Sounds like its either got a keeper or its two magnets that rotate in
relation to each other. Brian -- -- From the sofa of Brian Gaff - Blind user, so no pictures please! "F Murtz" wrote in message nd.com...

Brian Are we talking about Dennis? -- Ineptocracy (in-ep-toc-ra-cy) a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers. |

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? |
