I just started to use a magnetic tumbler for my small pieces and am struggling a bit with the tiny pins being all over the place after rinsing. I can get the majority of them but not all. I have used a magnet, but getting them off the magnet is a chore. I was watching this video:
and at the 1:23 mark, she uses this magnetic device that looks like it works pretty well. Does anyone know the name for this device or where to get it?
I don’t know the name.
But it is basically a strong magnet inside a tube and a collor outside. When you retract the magnet inside, the magnetics fall off at the collor.
Should be easy to make, or just use a thick plastic bag and a neodymium magnet inside.
When all the magnetics are collected, take the magnet out of the bag by wringing it inside out.
Clean magnet and magnetics in the bag
I use a plastic bag and I place a magnet inside of it. I take the bowl of , insert the plastic zipper with the magnet and that wil take every pin out the bowl. Remove the clean pieces. Then I turn the plastic bag inside out and all the pins fall of back into the bowl or on a plate whatever you like to use.
