## Abstract

The disclosure herein include a magnetic tool for attaching to and moving a ferromagnetic workpiece that may include: a chassis having a magnetic face; a base rotatably coupled to the chassis; and a handle rotatably coupled to the base.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A magnetic tool for attaching to and moving a ferromagnetic workpiece, comprising:
a chassis having a magnetic face having an aperture for receiving a magnet;
a base rotatably coupled to the chassis;
a handle rotatably coupled to the base, wherein a rotation axis of the base relative to the chassis is orthogonal to a rotation axis of the handle relative to the base; and
a coupler capable of being removably coupled to the chassis and to another chassis of another magnetic tool.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The magnetic tool of claim 1, wherein the coupler is disposed between ends of the chassis.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The magnetic tool of claim 1, wherein the coupler is solid.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The magnetic tool of claim 1, wherein the coupler is a wall.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The magnetic tool of claim 1, wherein the coupler is a triangular prism.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The magnetic tool of claim 1, wherein the coupler is a rectangular prism.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The magnetic tool of claim 1, further comprising a shield slidably coupled to the chassis.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The magnetic tool of claim 1, further comprising a shield slidably coupled to the chassis and the handle.

### Claim 9 (depends on 1)

The magnetic tool of claim 1, further comprising a shield disposed around the chassis, the base, and the handle.

### Claim 10 (depends on 1)

The magnetic tool of claim 1, further comprising a shield having a portion biased against the magnet.

### Claim 11 (depends on 1)

The magnetic tool of claim 1, wherein the magnetic tool and the shield share a central plane.

### Claim 12 (depends on 1)

The magnetic tool of claim 1, further comprising:
a shield;
a spring positioned between the shield and the handle.

### Claim 13 (depends on 1)

The magnetic tool of claim 1, further comprising:
a shield;
a spring positioned between the shield and the handle; and
a pin extending through the shield, the spring, and the handle.
