What happens here

After the magnet successfully identifies the location of a metal fastener, the presenter uses a cordless drill to drive a screw into that exact spot. The screw penetrates firmly, confirming that a stud has been accurately located and providing a secure anchor point.

Goal: Confirm the stud location by drilling into the spot where the magnet stuck, ensuring a secure attachment point for mounting.

And so there you have it.
