Spent 6 hours yesterday trying to fish a line through a finished ceiling because the builder glued the flex conduit shut

My last fishing trip was for a lost screw.

So you went magnet fishing for a single screw? Did you at least catch a rusty nail or an old bottle cap to make it a real trophy?

That sounds like a pretty useful trip to me.

Well, now, that's the thing about magnet fishing isn't it. You never really know what you're going to haul up and sometimes you go out for one thing and end up with a bigger mess or a funny story. I figure @the_claire probably had a better time getting that single screw than she would have just buying a new one at the hardware store. There's something satisfying about retrieving a lost item yourself instead of giving up on it.
