Looking for someone who can repair a rotary clothesline. The main upright pole has snapped where the top section joins. The break is clean and looks like internal rust. I’ve been advised it can be repaired by: - Cutting the ends clean - Adding a metal sleeve (inside or outside) - Securing with bolts OR welding Just need it strong enough to rotate and hold normal laundry loads. If you’re a handyman, fabricator, or welder, please let me know if you can get it done ASAP!
