After working on my E-Revo 2.0 and losing a few screws to the Abyss that is my workshop floor, I bit the bullet ang got the Cow RC Magnetic Mat (XL). Man, this thing is well made and looks great.

Thanks, I saw some youtube videos on it and figured it was a great investment...shipping was a bit pricey though (over $20).Looks like a good one.
They are awesome! Just getting back into the RC game after a 10 year absence...wish I knew about them back then. Definitely would have picked one up.They are great. I still have the one I bought 12 years ago.
No I have not. It's probably been 2-3 years since I've heard from Heath.Have you talked to Heath lately @WoodiE?

It's good to know others are still finding and loving his products!
I do this too but the mat keep screws from bouncing off your bench if you drop them or it keeps them from rolling around all over you bench while you're working on something.The CowRCs pit Mat is a very nice one to have for sure.. I try to magnetize my drivers before taken out screws. Its easily done with just a magnet.
You just got to use a strong magnet that you can get from anything or anywhere.. like speakers or the magnetic parts holder tray..Just clean your screwdriver/hexdriver. And rub in one direction from handle to tip. About 7 - 10 times. Then turn it 1/4 turn and do it again. All the way around the more you rub the driver on magnet the stronger the hold.... to demagnatize you simply smack the drive with a hammer against another metal object like a vise...it works try it...
Yeah.. I get what it's for hence it's a pit mat.. but thanks for the description..I do this too but the mat keep screws from bouncing off your bench if you drop them or it keeps them from rolling around all over you bench while you're working on something.
That was more for other people than you. I was just trying to say if you have a magnetic pit mat and magnetize your driver it will save someone a lot of headaches hunting for screws.
