I saw this on Horsepower a couple of weeks ago. Pretty cool little tool. The Magnetic Finger by TurnPro. It comes in 2 sizes, S/M & L/XL. They claim it holds virtually any small ferrous metal object. I don't know about you guys, but I'm always dropping some small little thing and wasting time looking for it. This has a tiny magnet sewn into the tip under the cross-hairs. It has pretty good power for screws, nuts, washers, springs, clips, etc. Not bad for 10 bucks plus shipping. They also make an Industrial version with a strap around the wrist for maximum retainment (I made that up) and a full size glove with the magnet in the index finger.

Just don't try to change the battery in your pacemaker with it. :sick2:

Neat!

Of course dropping a good magnet down into the finger of a glove you already have would work too I guess. Just never thought of it!
Now where's that 2 fingered bow hunting glove at? :D

Not a bad idea. In a bind, I've used gasket adhesive to glue a nut to my finger to start the threads in a tight area... Oh man, does that sound funny!
