Biohazard
Yesterday, I thought I would pull the wires out of the burlap and try to clean them up a bit.
Thought it would be nice to finally get rid of that nasty fabric. But, as I unbent the tip of each
one so it could be easily withdrawn from the burlap, the tip broke...one after the other. As I
looked at wire more closely (I really hadn't up to this point) I realised that these thin wires
were just done for. Too much time, too much corrosion. I decided to ditch the idea of re-
using the wires and, possibly, of using those wires at all. Surely, I thought, there must be
another way of accomplishing their task satisfactorily.
Meanwhile, for the sake of those unsure...I had measured the distance between wires so I would know how to properly reassemble a new set.
Alas, I did say "to hell with 'em" and just tossed out the lot. Good riddance!
