Am I being 'el-cheapo'? (metal related)
I own about 80 tomato baskets. These are the conical wire supports that
hold up the plants as they hopefully grow. Every year about a dozen baskets experience failure by having one of their welds break. I segragate them and eventually they meet with my OA welding torch and get a new lease on life. SWMBO says I should simply buy new baskets. Most of them are at least 20 years old, back when you could buy them for $ 0.50 each. I refuse to pay $1.79 and up for new ones. Cheap? I would rather spend the money on welding gas. Ivan Vegvary |
