Flexible Claw Grasper Some are magnetic.

I was diagnosed with cancer at 17 and had to go through all the typical horrible cancer things like biopsies and chemotherapy, no radiation treatment. It was testicular cancer that spread to my lymph nodes (10cm tumor in my abdomon) and lungs, caught pretty late. (I'm fine now, thanks for asking) I've had ball pain worse than a Jackie Chan kick, my insides pulled out and put back, and completely incompasitating kidney pain dozens of times. Nothing was as bad as what I will describe in the next paragraph.

I was in a routine cystoscopy and urinary stent change. These things by themselves are terrible. They take a camera and a tube and slide it up your urethra all the way to the kidney, take out the old piece of plastic holding open your uretor, watch what happens for a bit, then put in a new one. (I've woken up during a few of these operations, it hurts and is extremely uncomfortable, plus for the next week I have to deal with the feeling of the inside of my penis being sandpapered.) The most painful experience was when an operation went bad. The replacement stent was pushed too high and couldn't be brought back down, so I needed to spend the night and hopefully it would drop down some and be corrected in the morning. When I woke up it was like the worst kidney pain of a kidney stone accompanied by the stabbing pain of being stabbed deep in the kidney by a plastic tube. There was a nice big catheter (NSFW medical) left in to drain urine and a metal wire that was attached to the stent that ran along side it. You know those flexible long tools for picking up up screws at the bottom of a hole, or the top string on a bass guitar, but bigger. It was a metal wire wrapped by another wire. The tiniest movement would shock every nerve in my groin. It was like a ridged steakknife down my urethra.

I had few pain meds because I had just been under general and was due to be put under again in the morning. I spent around 11 hours like that. I was in heavy constant pain and was pinned to the bed by these things that went deep into me.

Get one of THESE and go fishing?

I would try the shop vac idea, if that fails. Possibly use something like a long reach grabber to fish them out.

They sell These . If your phone isn't smooth you could try this out. Also, they have ones with flashlights at the end. Super glue is brittle, so some quick blunt force might dislodge it if you didn't use a lot of glue. Maybe you can try it next time you go.

Invest in one of these babies: https://www.amazon.com/Flexible-Claw-Automotive-Mechanic-Generic/dp/B000RB7AGY

Also great for pulling yucky hair clumps out of the tub drain.

u/Ghigs · 2 pointsr/NoStupidQuestions

What sort of vent are you talking about? The kind that's often inside one of the burners? Or something else...

Edit: You can get these at most hardware stores for a couple dollars: https://www.amazon.com/Flexible-Claw-Automotive-Mechanic-Generic/dp/B000RB7AGY/

I use a magnet on an extendible rod (think old school car aerial) that has a built in light for metal objects. For small non metal objects I use a flexible grabber tool. For large objects, I wonder how the hell they got in there in the first place.

u/GrimResistance · 1 pointr/CherokeeXJ

I broke almost all my shock bolts when I was replacing mine.

What you have to do is take an air hammer with a pointed tip in it (or just a BFH and a punch) and hammer out the old weld nuts. Then you have to fish some new bolts into the holes with either a magnetic pick-up tool or one of these claw grabber things. After that you should be able to get a wrench on the top of the bolts but it can be tricky.

Here's a writeup of a similar method.

That's happened to me before. I used a tool like this (sanitized of course) http://www.amazon.com/Flexible-Claw-Automotive-Mechanic-Generic/dp/B000RB7AGY

Here... This would work. https://www.amazon.ca/Flexible-Claw-Pick-Automotive-Mechanic/dp/B000RB7AGY
Dollar stores have them.

u/eternaforest · 0 pointsr/whatisthisthing

It's a tool to pick up things that have fallen into "inconvenient places". They're typically flexible though.
