I’ve read many users either having had a terrible experience, or a very near mishap. I wanted to share my $.25 solution that will stop you from ever having a Wrench in your Day. 🙂 Back in my table build days I figured out where my natural go-to place where I would “naturally” reach for my wrench when changing bits, and just drilled in 3/8" recessed hole and epoxy’s in Neodinium Magent… Bingo… wrench is ALWAYS where I left it and no matter what the machine does that thing “Aint’ goin nowhere!”

Hope it helps save a few folks some costly mistakes. @pwpacp @Hermsen.BJ @shuey911

> I feared much the same thing so I put a magnetic tool holder strip (picked up at Lowes) on the front edge of my table. It’s location is so convenient I don’t even lay tools down on the waste board during bit changes. The strip also allows me to store an LED pen light there for utility. Whiskey glasses on the other hand…

Excellent idea. I just so happen to have a box of 1/2" neo magnets. I’ll put one on the forward edge f the table and another for my glassware - Charlie

Great suggestion Alex. I have a wrench holder for this purpose. But all my clamps are a different story…
