Subject: Re: First day of Fall 22 Sep 2014 by TommyT-Bone on 2014/9/22 16:35:24 The Fall stuff in Florida looks exactly the same as the Spring and Summer stuff.  No dragging needed. Christmas is another story.Sue ended up at the metal recycling yard and there was a guy there with 2 custom 6' aluminum gates with aluminum palm trees adorning the center. The recycler was gonna give him $28. Sue said, I'll give you $50 and the guy said OK and they loaded them on her pick up. The guy later told Sue he paid the local fence company $7200 for the gates when he first bought them. One mans trash is another mans treasure once again. It is being repurposed by the pond. You'll see pics in the future. One of the gates was complete . The other needs to have some palm pieces reattached. Sue's at the welding shop right now. Naturally, that means another job for me. Cleaning up the gates. I'm thinking of using aluminum wheel cleaner and a Teflon scrub sponge or should I use diluted muriatic acid? She really got a steal of a deal. |
