Well as they say Misery Loves Company. At least we are all sinking in the same boat together.

Magnetic tools holders here - found a 24 inch one. Only $83.00!!!!

At that price I doubt they sell many - that's half the minimum monthly wage here.

Tonight, I visited our local Harbor Freight, and picked up this light
https://www.harborfreight.com/390-lu...ght-63958.html
using this coupon
Coupon Display
which is valid through Sunday, the 26th of August.

Main purpose is to provide extra light when i am working on models parts when on a display, like in Sterling or Carlisle.
The light comes with a magnet in the base, so you can stick it on any magnetically affected metal surface, i used one of my 3rd hand tool bases for it, solid weight, and doesn't tip over when the light bar is angled.
