Not exactly in the same vein as the other replys but...
Back in the day when was a VW mechanic we used a little magnetic wrench to hold the upper bolts that held the engine in type 1s. That way one person can take the engine out. I left mine on a car one day and was really missing it. Not two days later a car came in for a clutch job and I reached up to try to put a regular wrench on the bolt and there was one of the little magnetic guys. Someone else had made the same mistake I had made and gifted me a new wrench.
