Abstract
A modular magnetic tool system utilizes one or more magnet modules and attachable components to enable selective assembly of a wide variety of magnetic tools. Channels of the magnet modules are connectable in series and in parallel, either by integral connectors or attachable components which can be selectively attached to the magnet modules singularly, in series, or in parallel to form different types of magnetic tools with different functions for different applications.
