treesner Posted February 13, 2020 Report Share Posted February 13, 2020 anyone know of a regular sharpie that has a metal cap? I want it to stock to my magnetic tool strip like my mechanical pencils do. maybe some other pen cap would fit on a sharpie body.. this is the closets I found https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07VT7V6SS/ref=ask_ql_qh_dp_hza Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legenddc Posted February 13, 2020 Report Share Posted February 13, 2020 You could try these - https://www.amazon.com/Sharpie-Permanent-Markers-Assorted-Colors/dp/B000GOZXA2/ I think the cap fits regular sharpies but I can't find any of our keychain ones at the moment.

Popular Post drzaius Posted February 13, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 13, 2020 The question is whether or not that stainless steel is magnetic. And the refills are really expensive compared to a Sharpie. How about gluing a washer to a regular Sharpie cap? When that one runs dry, just switch the cap to a new Sharpie. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhighlander Posted February 14, 2020 Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 Wrapping a cap with soft iron tie wire works, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coop Posted February 14, 2020 Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 Stick a piece of Velcro on both the Sharpie and the magnetic strip. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Home centers have it as electric fence wire or fence tie wire. Check the garden section. Magnetic and very malleable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
