Yeah, but I have problems sourcing magnets that will pick up aluminum or brass. Problem in my shop is I put in an epoxy floor, with the large dark flakes in it. Great camouflage for anything small. If

Another set of eye works generally, even when the item is large and was deliberately set down *somewhere* in the shop! I showed up at the shop of a friend just as he was searching high and low for

Bare feet..... or a powerful magnet. Whit

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

Nope. NOT HAPPENING!!! Can't blame a guy for trying, but I'll put it in the bathroom if nothing else works. My wife was trying to persuade me to move to Puerto Rico a while back so my retirement pay
