18" Magnetic Tool Holder at HF $5
I have to give Harbor Freight some credit where it is due. I have bought three magnetic tool holders recently, and Harbor Freight's model has the strongest magnet. It can hold up a large adjustable wrench (which the other two companies could not). Regular price is $4.99 which is very reasonable. It is bright orange, but I don't care.

Do you think they would hold full size turning tools?

I'm using one of these attached to a set of blinds on the metal door to the garage. Pretty strong magnet!

David,
They hold all his new Henry Tayor turning tools except for his two small gouges (totally round at touch point). We are going to try putting one more tool holder above the first one, and see if that will hold those two tools. Also my dad went to HF (in Dillon, SC) yesterday and they are on sale for $4 right now. Happy Shopping!!
