Modelling A Wire Basket

Hello!

So i'm currently in the process of modelling a form of aluminium shopping basket. I was just looking for some tips on the best way to go about modelling this quickly, efficiently and to give me the best aesthetic appeal? So essentailly the product would be made from aluminium rods, then i assume would be spot welded together? In this case i also wondered the best way of modelling the welds?

Have a look at the picture for an idea of what im thinking of!

Cheers in advance,

Luke
