| How do you clean and demagnetize your tweezers? |
| << < (4/5) > >> |
| RoGeorge:
If you have a soldering gun, make a coil out of thick copper wire (like in the attached pic, solid copper wire for electrical power outlets in the house). Insert the tweezers in the middle of the coil, press the on switch to energize the coil, and keep the power on while slowly (5-10 seconds) removing the tweezers far away outside the coil. |

I got myself one of these titanium tweezers. They don't need demagnetization, but for screwdrivers, I use something like this: Works just fine, and doubles as magnetizer if needed. |

Crude vintage head demagnetiser, works well on tweezers! |

Also, there are watchmaker tweezers made from brass that are non magnetic. Regards. --- End quote --- Yes, this device is basically just a coil with a push button (in the line cord). It works very well and only cost a few dollars (vintage gear). |
