A bit of one. Culmination of one job leading to another and taking a week (ten minute jobs of course).
Naturally there are half a dozen bits missing. Under the washing machine no doubt.

I use an old speaker magnet on a bit of string to gather up bits that have disappeared under the furniture.

I magnetised a long screwdriver from a speaker magnet to retrieve a bolt that had dropped into a recess in the C5 door when I was removing the window mechanism a couple of days ago, worked a treat.

Re: Picture(s) of the day....
My ex wife tried that trick to recover a grub screw from her sewing lamp clamp. Unfortunately her knots have never been great so when I got home I had to recover both the grub screw from under the sofa and my magnet from the caster on the back of the sofa!!
I used to be indecisive, now I'm not so sure!
I used to ride on two wheels, but now I need all four!

I use a speaker magnet at work for when I drop spanners down deep holes, my arm doesn't stretch to 3 metres.

Abject failure to retrieve any. They must have gone into another dimension.

Nice photo Bobins. Some of mine which initially hit the reject pile for POTD. Naked eye the clouds looked like Bob Ross had left some distinct brushstrokes on a painting of sky. Camera shots didn't capture it too well.
