Hi Martin
             Have a look at Arc Euro's site, i think they have just started selling magnetic swarf picker-uperer's for want of a better name

       Cheers  Derek.

Arnak:
Hi Derek,

Thanks for the tip, I'll pop over and have a look.

I've seen the pulling force as well as the stroke distance of the solenoid referred to as suckage.

Ah, I remember that, is it the S.I. or ANSI system that has the Lovelace as the derived unit of suckage?

Hi Andyf,

Thanks to your advice I made a great pickup tool as per that url you supplied.

I brought 10 magnets for about £6 from Ebay, some for other projects. ::)

Having checked out the one from Arc at about £17, a bit too expensive that, I made one in a very short time and can highly recommend that method.

The plastic pipe was a cistern overflow tube, just the right inside diameter for the magnet plus a bit of gaffer tape to close off the end.

Works a treat so I'll probably make another one for the mill and have one for the lathe and mill. :headbang:

Martin
