Spent about $150 on a set of precision screwdrivers with magnetic tips
They've saved me from dropping tiny screws into tight spaces at least a dozen times this month alone. What's your go-to tool for keeping small parts from disappearing?

My go-to tool is a bright blue shop towel laid flat on the workbench. I have this theory that tiny screws can sense fear, and they just VANISH into another dimension if you look at them wrong. The towel stops the bounce and roll, and the bright color makes them easier to spot. It's a low-tech solution for someone with a high-tech level of clumsiness. I still lose at least one screw per project to the carpet monster, though.
