The goal in life is living better. And for that using your mind more than your muscle. This is a prime example. We're happy to see you working in your shop again and glad you're back at the day job too. Thanks Jack.

Thanks for the idea Jack.. Arthritis in my back is limiting my bending and I seem to be dropping things on a more regular basis these days! The magnet is a plus since I am always spilling nails and screws! Glad to have you back!

All right, JACK IS BACK! Another great video and project as always. While you were building the grabber, I thought, "you should put a magnet on the bottom". Sure enough, you did. I caught your video on the router circle making jig, and I have to tell you, THAT was brilliant. Only jig I have seen that you didn't need a starter hole. I built it, used it, and it works to perfection. Thanks for all you do.

That grabber is a fantastic idea! I particularly love the magnet, I can't tell you how many times I'm trying to pick up screws or bolts I drop in the shop. And of course they always want to roll underneath a bench (there's a particular rule in physics why that happens. But I don't want to bore people with the explanation. Hee hee).

However, I never thought of a magnet on the end so I'll add one to the grabber in the workshop which will keep me going until I make one like your's because it is much nicer than the standard metal one. I didn't know you haven't been well so it's great to see you back again. I hope you keep well. Best Wishes, Brendan.

Great video! One thing about the grabber: wouldn't it be better if it were closed by default (under spring tension) and opened when you pull the trigger? That way you could hold things without having to pull the trigger. On the other hand, the spring would have to be much stronger, because you wouldn't be able to use the trigger to adjust the force of the grabbing. Hmm, I can see the pros and cons of both approaches. Anyway, I'm glad you're back in the workshop! Take care.
