Lighted Mechanical Pick-Up Tool.

Lighted grasper, lighted LED end (runs on LR41 watch batteries). Great to pick nuts, bolts, etc. Flexes at least to a 180 degree orientation without lost of grasper torque. Priced right at < $9.00 at Home Depot.

Good to pick up wire to pull thru.

Note: If you need to pull wires I recommend spring steel wire leader (fish supply store) and loop one end. Fish wire thru pathway...tie wire to looped end and pull thru.

Be careful of any springed tool...it can snap back at you...wear protective eyewear.

And here I thought this was going to be a thread about hot guys on scooters.

Disappointed.

Way cool. Thanks for posting. I'm ing to HD tmw and will get one. screws and nuts always seem to drop into dark places and its a PITA to try and shine a light into the hole where the pick tool is.

Thanks
Miguel

Yes, that's a good tool to have. I forgot I do because I have gotten away with a telescope magnet in the past...

Me too. I could use a new pick-up tool.

I have just recently graduated to a telescoping magnetic tool. It sure cames in handy sometimes.

Got a similar one on the boat and another in the garage. They work.

Great for pinching french fries (chips) from the next table.


Edit: mine is not lighted (lit).

Looks like sometimes the tool might not be enough:
