I have a nice big magnet that I tied to the end of a piece of string and walked it around the edge of the gravel where it means my concrete floor of our RV garage. Works like a charm, sucks up any rogue screws, staples, or nails within 6" of the magnet.


I bought one with a little broom-handle in the middle and a wheel at either end, at Tractor Supply a few years ago. It was $24 & some-odd (+ tax). That year, getting a flat repaired at {censored}-Mart cost $6 & some-odd (+ tax). The first 10 minutes I had the thing home, even rounding-DOWN to $6-even, it paid for itself about 3x in tramp-metal.

Any more, I see these wheeled "magnet-brooms" at more places (including our local Harbor Freight store. Best regards.

Mine has Square lights as well. What happens is the manufacturers would by a bunch of chassis at one time and set them aside to build later. The RV is titled when the coach portion is completed and it's ready for sale. So... the round/square headlight difference for the '79 Dodge RVs is a result of Dodge updating the line, and the coach manufactures still having supply.

It gets confusing when looking for parts... as the Square Headlights is a '79-'84 style, but all the books say Dodge stopped putting 440s in vans in '78.
