WingNUTS!

I at Lowes looking for hardware for my latest woodworking project yesterday. It seems I can get hex nuts for $0.08 ea, but wing nuts cost almost $1 ea! I don't understand it, what makes the wing nut so special that they'd cost so much? The design is years old, and there's only about twice the metal in a wing nut.That's a huge upcharge just for conveinence. I could solder a washer on the top of the nut and get the same function for around $0.25.Puckdropper
