Letting the spirits find hidden nails

Although I use a metal detector to find hidden nails and metal in reclaimed lumber, the detector doesn’t do a very good job of pinpointing the culprit. Recently I tried old-school Ouija technology to help locate the nails. Here’s how it works.

Good info, Oliver. And a fun video, as well!

I had to use a rare earth magnet yesterday when I was cleaning my work area with the shop vac and sucked up the tiny hinge screws for a small box I'm building. The screws were actually stuck in the ribs of the hose but I got them out. I didn't have any fun music, though. :wink:
