Edward Tools 33" Magnetic Pickup Tool - 8lb Pull for Bolts, Nuts, Screws - Auto Repair & Workshop Use

It does a great job of picking up dropped pins in my quilt studio. I wanted a picker upper that would fit in my small tool keeper on my work table. This one fits perfectly!!As far as sturdiness, when fully extended, there seems to be a slight weakness/ flex in the middle. It's no big deal for my occasional use to pick up pins but wanted to note that, in case you might be picking up heavier items. The magnet is very strong and is wrapped with aluminum so it won't grab on to metallic chair or table legs etc when you're fishing for pins.I love it! Recommend it for sewists or quilters and it would make an inexpensive, practical gift.
