Hi All,
I had a fantastic magnetic recovery tool. this tool had a long thin magnet on 
the end of a fairly long spring. At the other end of the spring was a hollow 
threaded fitting. There is an extension rod that slipped inside of the spring 
and was screwed on the end of the spring for storage. When needed it was taken 
out and screwed on the end making a long  handle.
This evening I needed it to recover a dropped screw. Well, I remembered that I 
lent it to a friend and he has no idea where it is.
This tool is about 40 years old. Any ideas what the correct name is for it and 
where I can find a replacement?
My wife got the screw out using some gum and a long thin piece of scrap wood.
