I couldn't find any magnets small enough with holes in them, so I bought some 1/2" craft magnets from Walmart and drilled a hole in one. Tony's idea of using the straw saved me. I needed the straw to move the magnet around and keep it from getting stuck. After trying to put the magnet in as deep as I could and draw it forward without any success, I just dropped it straight down and carefully lifted up using the straw. Out came the magnet and the nut!

Hmm... I could probably pull it off. I sold a can of Pringles potato chips for $12 on ebay a few years ago. ![Wink](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)

The label was printed upsidedown. The buyer was a Proctor&Gamble employee. Yes, I got the money, plus shipping. I was originally going to try selling an empty Dr Pepper bottle just to see if some idiot would buy it. When I walked down the soda and chips isle, the upsidedown can caught my attention.
