I usually call my wife in as a last resort. ?She is uncanny! ?Last week I lost the jaws of my milling attachment for my 618. ?I spent four days looking and finally called in my wife who informed me that she had seen them on the bench and put them in the scrap metal bin! ?I quit making The new set immediately!

Brighter flashlight does really help. Something that throws a distinct

The flashlight trick only works if the workshop has a reasonably clean flat
floor. I have a friend whose shop floor is rough concrete bad enough tjat I
can actually stub a toe there. Drop anything smaller than a 1" 1/4-20 bolt
and it's gone forever.
