You just stroke it in the same direction a few dozen times with just one pole of a powerful permanent magnet.
The screwdriver must be made of of iron or steel: it won't work if the screwdriver is made of something like brass, aluminum or plastic because those materials are non-magnetic!
Lots of people try to make a magnet using both poles of a horseshoe-shaped magnet but then it won't work as well because the second pole of the magnet will reverse the magnetising effect of the first pole.
All you have to do is keep stroking the metal with just one pole of your magnet, pressing hard and always going in just one direction only and then pick up the magnet at the end of each stroke.
Stroke the metal over and over like that with just one pole of your magnet until the metal of the screwdriver gets magnetized enough to pick up other pieces of metal, like a smaller screwdriver or some metal paperclips.
But be sure to to try your magnetized screwdriver only on other things that are also made of a magnetizable material such as steel.

Can you test the strength of a flywheel magnet with a screwdriver?
It is not recommended to test the strength of a flywheel magnet with a screwdriver as the force exerted by the magnet could cause the screwdriver to snap towards it, potentially causing injury. It's safer to use an appropriate tool or magnet gauge to measure the strength of the magnet.
How do you magnatize a screwdriver?
There are a few ways . . . 1. Point the screwdriver north and south, then tap on it for a while with a hammer or other steel device. 2. Rub the screwdriver for its entire length with a magnet for a while.
How can you make a magnet stick to aluminum?
You cannot make a magnet stick directly to aluminum because aluminum is not magnetic. However, you can make a magnet stick to aluminum by placing a magnetic material, such as iron, in between the magnet and the aluminum surface.
Why is a screw driver magnetic?
A screwdriver can become magnetic when it is made from a ferrous material like steel. When exposed to a magnetic field or magnet, the steel in the screwdriver can become magnetized, allowing it to attract and hold onto metal screws or other magnetic objects.
How do you make a metal magnet?
To make a metal magnet, you can create a temporary magnet by stroking a metal material (like iron) with a permanent magnet in the same direction. This aligns the magnetic domains in the metal. For a more permanent magnet, you can heat the metal to a specific temperature and then cool it in the presence of a magnetic field to enhance its magnetic properties.
How can you make your screwdriver permanently magnetic?
you can take a magnet and run it down the side of you screw driver repeatedly. Screwdriver you can take 24 hours to attach a strong magnet. Or you can get away from the coil and plug wires to the battery.

What is one object that has magnets in it?
in a magnetic screwdriver or kitchen magnet
Is a screwdriver a weak or strong magnet?
Screwdrivers can have weak or strong magnetism.
How do you magnetize a screwdriver?
Rub it against a magnet repeatedly. * The screwdriver can only be magnetized if made from steel or another magnetic metal, and most of them are. * Once magnetized, the screwdriver will remain magnetized always.
Can i use magnet to retrieve screwdriver in water drain?
I just used one that I tied to the end of a string to get a screwdriver out of my water tank. No worries mate.
What causes magnitism?
Like electrons aligning up. This is the theory of magnetism. It is believed the electrons align positive (or negative), in the same direction creating magnetism. When you pass a magnet across a shaft of a screwdriver, you cause the electrons to align in the screwdriver shaft, creating another magnet.
What is the best homemade tool to remove lifters?

yes

by stroking it with another magnet :D
