Some examples are: magnets on strings for screw strorage, and on wrist for work under the piano. Also an ammunition can for glue storage. Some more unusual ones are CA and a round head bolt for missing jack tender; surgical tools for holding new strings on bridge pins, right angle forceps for installing split punchings and wine corks for felt replacement and buzzing ribs.
