Plastic Coated Mesh
I am looking to make some baskets for gardeners used to carry fruit,
vegetables, etc as they collect it. The ends are going to be Cyprus but I am looking to make the basket body out of a plastic coated wire mesh material. The idea being they could wash it all out with a hose. Anybody know of a resource where I can get such an item in small quantities. Each piece would have overall dimension of 21" x 32" approx. I searched and could only find manufacturers selling large quantity. Thanks. |

Google lobster trap wire.....the small manufacturers of traps will be more
than willing to sell you a small quantity. The stuff is really durable. Dave |

It is basically chicken wire that is coated in PVC: http://www.homedepot.com/prel80/HDUS...=11-12001412-2 |

I got some several years ago to make bait traps. They had 1/4" and 1/2" in rolls. |

After 6 years of our cat climbing it, it still keeps the bugs out. I *may* have to replce it next year. The only downside might be the small mesh side... that may make it harder to hose out. But it would be great for berry pickers! |
