Laser Tools is this week promoting its ‘super-flexible’ magnetic pick-up tool.
A Laser tools spokesperson said: “The tool is ideal for retrieving those metal nuts, bolts, screws and other metal pieces that have found their way into areas otherwise inaccessible.

“If you’ve had to drill out a seized glow plug, this pick-up tool is narrow enough to be inserted into the glow-plug aperture to retrieve any metal swarf or broken glow-plug debris.
“The soft grip handle provides comfort and control over the movement of the pick-up tool.
“The flexible shaft can be easily formed into any shape that will assist in locating the dropped item and it will hold this shape as you work.”
This flexible magnetic pick-up tool is available from Laser Tools stockists.
