Magnetic Sweeper Bar (18in Harbor Freight Magnetic tool holder)
Description
I love the 18in Harbor Freight Magnetic Tool Holders. I have several in my garage and office. I recently dropped a big thing of small screws and nuts and most magnetic sweepers are way too expensive for me for occasional use. Harbor Freight has a 17in sweeper with wheels but I already had a spare tool holder and I didn't want to spend $12. So I made the Magnetic Sweeper Bar. I wanted to test my design skills so I made this from the ground up using a caliper and TinkerCad to make the model. I used Paracord because it's readily available but you could use another type of rope/wire. I pick these up for $5. https://www.harborfreight.com/18-in-magnetic-tool-holder-60433.html The paracord was spare so the only thing left is the cost of filament and time. I'd say this cheaper, smaller, and slightly easier than the $12.99 wheeled version at HF.
