USING A MAGNET is a fast way to pick up dropped nails or screws, but picking all the nails off the magnet can be a chore, especially for those super-strong rare earth magnets. To make it a lot easier, turn a small snack-sized Ziploc bag inside-out over the end of your magnet before picking up the nails. Once the nails are all picked up and stuck to the magnet, just turn the bag right side-out and pull it off the magnet.
