You-Tube has it's advantages. Hubby and I watched a few videos, went out to the barn and got a broken hoe..... ...cut out the bottom of a plastic bottle, and stapled the bottle to the handle. Wa-la. Not real fancy, but functional and free. It works too. Homemade fruit picker is no w off the "to buy -it" list. I woke up early and told Hubby, "I can't can a thing today - no onions ." Which he quickly said at the crack of pre- sun -up, "I can run to the store real quick and get some for you ." Ha ha ha! Oh that burst of energy he has now. And no , we are still not canning, and no quick trip to the store . We'll get them later, maybe from the farmstand, but not before 6am, ha ha!
