Ive done similar burn in the past on beaches in Seattle. You don't need an electromagnet on a backhoe, but it''s much more fun to play with big toys. A simple magnet sweep on wheels works just fine.

magnet rakes are human-powered and have a smaller carbon footprint : P

Posting comments on reddit increases your carbon footprint

and the bigger it is the more carbon it uses

That's dope, I wonder if it can rip rebar out of the ground too. That looked like some pretty wet dust!

That's setting off my internal danger alarm because of the flying nails. I know they won't hurt me, but still. Very cool though.

I've done way smaller scale with a magnet fishing magnet after a box fell off a truck and to clean out old firepits. Pretty fun.
