    NETS

    £30 for 10, 4 foot hand made nets is very good price mate considering the every mesh is hand made, your getting quality and the with the cost of twine taken out you can't grumble (providing its not 4z or 6z nylon ) Have a hunt through the pages their are one or two boys on here will sort you out. Hope this helps .D.
  4. If more people thought like that im sure we would have more new people joining the sport .D.
  5. Hello everyone i'v done a bit with snares before but compared to some of you its hardly worth mentioning. Could someone make me some six strand snares they will be used on the lovely animal called mink . You can leave a reply or send me a pm cheers .D.
  6. yes, something will "be up" because all the "hemp" you recieve from most met making suppliers, will indeed be, yep, you guessed. Flax. Which of the net making suppliers sell "hemp"? If what you are saying is true then the suppliers iv mentioned are commiting fraud and deception .D.
  7. Nice one chap! the first one is always the hardest and the worst, like already said it will feel great when a bunny tries running through it .D.
  8. Bridport nets do it and you could give jbsnets a ring, i think their spun poly is the same price .D.
  9. Nice one mate and a cracking looking dog. I see you have a couple funky ferret box's .D.

    info on long nets

    thanks. iv got the idea just practice now in the park Like Ricky said mate just keep at it mate and when its going good and becoming easyier try it with your eyes closed .D.
  11. I thought Jbs were ok. but by word of mouth on this forum, I have been lead to beleive that the hemp they sell is actually flax edited because it probably sounds stpid now everyone has said it is flax. I did see the rest of the posts! forgive me lol Ask him to send you a few samples of different twines and ask another net making supplier to send them as well and compear them if one is different from the other then you know something is up .D.
  12. Iv never used them but they seem like a very good idea and twelve meshes fit perfectly on the flat part, nice one .D.

    nets

    I know a few people which use purse nets which can only be described as rainbow nets and they all get along with them fine but with longnets i personally tend to stick with colours on the dull side because iv seen a few bunnys shy away from them wether it was the colour of the net or just the bunnies i cant say for sure but i know where that net ended up .D.

    longnet basket

    Nice one Meg that looks tidy mate. Yea debris netting will do the job and if it does get torn its free to replace .D.
  17. my explanation is thus ; it will have been flax from your other suppliers aswell Some was from Bridport nets and three spools were from a company selling all things made from hemp. How can you tell the difference between hemp and flax because up to now iv never used it? .D.
  18. I find that a bit strange because iv had "hemp" from their before and as far as i can see its the same as iv had from another supplier apart from the ply everything else is identicle or am i missing something? .D.
  19. How do you know its flax and the spun nylon is spun polyester? .D.
  20. Na sorry mate but i will keep my ear to the ground but nice one for putting the post up. Top bloke .D.
  21. Nice one chap . Most of my land is riddled with thorns, giant holly bushes and ten feet deep hedges which you cant see daylight through :nea: .D.
  22. Will call one Bernard and another Paul!!! :11: .D.
  23. Thats exactly my point everyone has got there own opions and names some would say its fur is ermine, its in ermine. its a ermine or its a stoat. If people want to call a older silver ferret which has a white coat a black eyed white then crack on .D.
