Old trick for the tying bench

Hi everyone,
Since there's not much going on in this newsgroup, why not start another
controversy about tying flies. ;-)
A trick I have on my tying bench, my tying vise actually, is a large flat
fridge magnet. It helps to keep count and hold in place the hooks I'm
using to ti a serie of flies and will ocasionnaly even hold beads in place
so they dont roll around everywhere.
I select my hooks, count them and place them flat on the magnet, which is
laid on my vise pedestal. That way my hooks are all align, I don't have to
search for them around the tying bench or get stung by one that flew under
the table. :-s

Hope to read you soon,
