Magnetic Pick

As a beginner guitar player, I'm very annoyed that my picks just disappeared every time I paused strumming for a few moments.

It's a short list of things I needed, to make my pick magnetic:

-a pick

-a small rare earth magnet (I got it from rolling paper packet, but you can buy them online or some craft stores.)

-a drill bit with the same diameter as your magnet

-a cordless drill

-some superglue

There's not much to say. It's 5mm in my case.

Drill the hole somewhere in the middle of the upper half of the pick.
Be careful if you use a very thin pick not to break them.
I used a piece of scrap under the pick to support it.

Just push the magnet in. In my case it was a very snug fit, so I think it would have been good to go.

If it's too snug, or you don't get it in, you can use some sandpaper to make the hole a bit bigger.

As I said, I think the snug fit would hold it, but I wanted to be sure, so I applied some superglue and set it to dry.

Well, it's finished. Start playing, and if you stop, just put it on your E string, or a screw, or wherever it will stick to your guitar, or bass, or ukulele, or whatever.
