Neat idea, I’ve got about 100 pencils in the shop… somewhere.

That is a good idea. I am like Tim. I have a bunch of pencils in the shop but I can’t find any of them. Making individual magnets and putting them on each tool is certainly an idea that has merit.

Thanks for the post.

I just came across magnetic strips, about 1/2” wide by 24” at the local BORG. It can be cut to length. I was thinking of using it for magnetic catches on cabinet doors, etc. I’d just use the small metal plates that come with cheap magnetic catches. The strips would be less obtrusive than the usual magnet-in-a-metal-holder set up, and since it’s an adhesive strip, a lot easier to install and position.

LOVE this idea. I have something similar but for a diferent application. I will probably post pics etc later today. CHEAP, EFFECTIVE, Simple (CES) we need more of these.

Absolutely a brilliant idea. Now where did I put that magnet? Oh I got them everywhere. Now I just need pencils….................LOL
