I've set about decommissioning last year's victory garden. Pulled up various stakes, moved the anti-bunny cage to the back deck for now, and...
... Started looking at the weed-barrier border. I hadn't figured on trying to re-use the weed barrier, but it needs to be pulled up and the staples removed before I go over the area with the tiller.
Pulling up the staples is going to require a tool, such as fence pliers. Fine. But just finding them turns out to be a mite trickier than I'd anticipated.
Sounds like a job for an ACME® Giant Magnet. In fact, I have a bloody great magnet in the barn. Know exactly where it is at this very moment. See, just this morning I dug it out and lugged it all the way over to the house, to pick up cut-off nail ends after I went around the front porch with the angle grinder. It's heavy. Maybe something a little less giant?
So I ordered a 3" diameter fishing magnet from Amazon, to be delivered by the Easter Bunny.
