Everyone loves a magnetic reach tool when you really need it, and when it works. But sometimes these things just plain suck and all they give you is false hope that you can actually retrieve whatever it is you have lost inside a vehicle. I mean how many times have you reached into your tool box and grabbed a cheap ass magnet tool, only to have it stick to everything BUT what you are trying to retrieve, and once you do somehow get it where it needs to be it doesn’t have the strength to lift out the part you dropped. Or how about the ultra strong magnet that is on the end of a weak telescopic stick that bends and tweaks because the magnet is sticking to everything around it? Or how about the telescopic part getting all loosie goosie and sucking that way too? The list goes on.
In this video from Project Farm the testing begins on 14 different brands of telescopic magnet tools. Who will come out on top?
Video Description:
