I bought one similar to this a few years ago on e bay for $25.00:

It was so cheap I couldn't afford to build one. I use it regularly to magnetize and demagnetize screw drivers and other small hand tools. It also gets used to demagnetize end mills. Somehow a bunch of end mills got magnetized. I don't know if it happened in storage or by lying on the bench, but it's a real pain to have all the swarf collect on the mill rather than drop on the table.
