    When I was home gunsmithing I got one of those big retrieval magnets and hung it from paracord to swing it close to the floor. The first time I used it I found enough pins, springs, detents and fasteners to more than pay for the magnet.
    If you can't make it precise make it adjustable.

    those small bits do have a way to escape don't they?
    Never try to tell me it can't be done
    When I have to paint I use KBS products
