Forty bucks for a metal dish with a magnet seems crazy to me. A cheap plastic tray or even an old coffee can lid does the exact same job for basically free. That's money better spent on actual tools or parts. The magnet thing is just a gimmick that drives up the price for no real gain. Can't see how a glorified paperweight makes that much difference on the bench.

Objectively the best" just means they've stopped thinking about it.

Oh man, that hits home. We had a pit feature that looked straightforward until we started peeling it back. What saved us was setting up a super strict routine right from the first trowel scrape. One person only took photos with the scale and north arrow, another did the drawings, and a third handled the tags and bags. Rotating jobs kept people from burning out. Trying to do it all at once just made a mess.
