RE: NUTS!


Phil,
I have a tool that I use for similar problems.  You should find one at most
auto
part stores.  It's a long, flexible rod with a plunger at one end.  When you
depress the plunger four tongs extend out from the opposite end.  When you
let
the plunger back out (it's spring loaded) the four tongs come together and
move
back inside the rod.  When they come together is when they are able to grasp
the
desired object.  Don't know the name of the tool, though.  It's very similar
to
the magnet tool you describe below.
