Garden Accoutrements

Does anyone know how to make one of these without having to weld? The adhesive would need to be durable enough to withstand 100F heat in TX (I was thinking of the product called Liquid Nails). And since I'm lazy, any ideas on how to cut metal easily/safely? I've seen them in frou frou garden stores, but they are so overpriced ... I can't help but imagine how many plants I could buy with the money.

My husband makes them all the time, no two alike. But he does weld them. I don't know of any other way to do it, unless you did something like the 'Tin man' and jointed it togeather.

You could take this to Garden Junk. Those people can do anything.

Wrap any joints with copper wire would be my best guess.
