sure one of those 3 finger gabbers for with the flex handle... like those stupid game machines that you have to line up the claw and drop it so it will pick up a stuffed animal...that you can never win...

Get something long enough that wont drop in and put some ductape on it,sticky side out. The 3 finger claw thingy is a good idea to.

Dude, did you make it passed the 5th grade? Can you you at least attempt to add punctuation and spell correctly? Your post is really hard to read.

I'd get one of those claws that dont retract all the way inside the rod because sometimes it just slides off whatever it is grabbing and this becomes extremely annoying.
