Well i had an old hard drive lying around that i dismantled and there is a super powerfull magnet inside, i found that attaching it to the screwdriver makes the whole screwdriver supermagnetic and you wont loose any of the small screws.

I use a phone holder magnet. I can't believe how powerful it is.

Please be careful with those powerful magnets! There is significant DANGER involved.

ALWAYS WEAR A FACE SHIELD, simple eye protection is not enough.

Handle Magnets Safely
