    Anybody ever invented a magnetic scraper

    I was going to buy one to use on chinese duct work.. But dang 300.00 bucks for a pole and a hinged double blade scraper with a magnet seems a little overpriced.. I thought about just using my 4 inch razor scraper and putting a wedge stile magnet on it. ??
