Magnetic armband.

Hey, I like to work on a lot of projects, and I always hate losing my screws and nails, so one day I was watching Cool Tools on DIY network, And I saw a magnetic armband on there, It was about $20 and I thought "Hmm I bet I could make one of those for free." So here it is.

(BTW, this is my first 'Ible so constructive criticism is welcome.)

Step 1 Supplies.

Alright, you'll need:

Duct tape.

Scissors.

Magnets. (I got these from a dry erase board)

Loose screws and nails.

This is a nice idea for doing little projects around the house. Maybe now I won't get yelled at for dropping the tin screws!

Thanks! Haha, yeah it would be good for that. I would recommend using rare earth magnets though, and maybe stick on velcro for the fastener.

I'm so making this, walk up to someone, steal their keys, MUAH HA HAH!!!

_{I apologize for spazzing out....}

Haha! Don't get caught =P.

You might need some stronger magnets though...

Oh and, Thanks!!

get magnets so strong that it causes the keys to rip through the denim and onto the magnet or a fishing pole for purses

Hehe

Thanks, That was my original plan, but I decided since I had those laying around I'd just use them, But I'll try the rare earth ones sometime.

Great idea. A good type of magnet to get are rare earth magnets. They are really strong and would hold more strength that what you used. Check out Deal to find some.
