Enhancement: Add magnets to post #5

I mounted a magnet with tape to the main post. This allowed me to clip the four wires before the cut, and have them pinned somewhere while I remove the twisted tetrode.

This is raw and not perfect, but I am thinking it would be a nice add on to have a few magnet bars that are close enough to the wires to be able to pin them. It's only one afternoon of experience, but it helped find and pin the wires back to the new clip. It reduced a bit of tangling without too extra much effort.

Here are some pics.

Here's the close up, the post is a bit too far away so the pinning does create some tension in the wire, I think it would be nicer if it was closer and it had multiple points (a few magnet bars instead of one circular magnet)

Happy to help! If there's any modifications that you want to test in this direction I can try to add them to the Twister in the Wilson lab and report back 😃
