Don't Throw Out Your Old SubWoofer/Speaker

[jzelt]

I cut the subwoofer housing part off of the magnet using a sawzall and then used a grinder to smooth the metal off.

I then inserted an eye hook with big fender washers on both ends and red thread lock on the end.

I plan on attaching a rope to it and use it to retrieve things off the bottom, or hold tools, etc on the work bench.

Just a thought to recycle what you may just be discarding as something useful.

Interesting idea.

Yeah I've got my old subs everywhere. I mounted one on the front of my buddies lawnmower at his workshop to pick up any stray screws, scrap, or random crap. He says every now and then he'll check it and it will be full of screws and scrap steel.

Good idea for key retrieval, just make sure the magnet is nowhere near your wallets or phones. Bye-bye credit cards and phone. :D
