I’ve been struggling to get out with my magnet so far this year, so instead I made this board to display some of my finds on.
I’ve never really done any woodworking apart from maybe a small project at secondary school, so I enjoyed putting this together and picking up some basic skills in doing so.
Thanks. All you really need to get started at a minimum is a magnet, a rope and some protective gloves. I use Magnetar for my magnets and I use their ropes too.
I’ve not lost a magnet yet but I have resorted to using my car to pull it out on two occasions now, and I bought a hand winch in case I ever can’t pull it out and I can’t get my car near. Both times I think the magnet was wedged rather than just magnetised to something, a good yank can overcome even the strongest fishing magnet.
