Magnetise a screwdriver bit or screw

When you're tackling a DIY project on your own you want to make things as easy as possible. If you don't have a magnetised holder for your screwdriver bit it's easy to make your own magnetised bit, so that holding screws on the tip of the bit doesn't become an infuriating task.

 

The easy way is to use a magnet and rub this over the screwdriver bit and the screws you will be using for the project. It doesn't last forever, but it will last long enough for you to complete your project and make it easier to place screws on the screwdriver bit.
