did you try what tc suggested to find out if its the twine or your needle loading ? I did, and it's helped a lot. Also, the twisting lessens as the net gets longer, so I'm getting there ! I got to the 12th row before I buggered it up this time (he wrote through gritted teeth !) This is probably the most frustrating thing I've ever tried...... if you got to the 12th row before you buggered up ......thats 11 you did right unpick the row back as far as you buggered up/or 11th row and carry on, another 11 rows and you got your first net Y.I.S Leeview

the spiral ducting get a hole cutter and put a few more holes in rather one at each end, that will give him something to explore but the real benefit will come with the jills and kits bombing round and popping up everywhere Y.I.S Leeview

basically he took the bottom ferrule off and glued it back on leaving 1/2 the original depth this allowed him to insert the 1/4 off cuts into it, he mentiond punching them? and cut a bevel on the bottom to go into the ground, hes an agricultural machinery builder/fitter so I just nodded when he explained Y.I.S Leeview

I was out yesterday with a guy, hes just made his first 2 stopnets 15yds and had purchased 150 grp tent poles for £30 from ebay, a bit short really so hes cut 30 of them down into 1/4's rejoined them with gluing and spotting the ferrules to end up with 120 poles that are spot on for the job at a very good price Y.I.S Leeview

I cant remember the last time I put a purse net in a hedge row I converted to stop nets run through a hedge above and below a warren a few years back now and would n't go back to purse nets, I make them 12-15yds long and you can tell by the net moving if there's a rabbit in the far side Y.I.S Leeview

when I set a purse net I always have some of the net down the hole for the rabbit to step onto it moves forward and the top ring of the net falls behind the rabbit idealy now2'6" and 3ft nets theres not enough net to do that and it acts like a catflap and a rabbit can be through it and out without it pursing.

If Im making purse nets I do them 4'8" shaped to 18 and back down, my reason is simple very few netmakers make them that big, if I wanted smaller nets (cant think why) it would be cheaper to buy them at the ridiculous prices they're selling at. Last week on another site 31st January 16 a lad asks how to make purse nets on the 10th February hes asking how much he can sell these nets for Y.I.S Leeview

Association Of Working Lurcher/longdogs ( Awl )
Leeview replied to Giro's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
Its pretty straight forward fella The commitee are not indefinitely in position. Hope this helps you out so the original square wheel will be happy to let go of the reigns hard to believe given hes still there after, remind me again how many years, and ffs give the council of hunting crap a rest their rules say two members of the executive committee (their words not f***ing mine for sure) can stay in place, so he will stay and just swap his cronies every now and then the rules(2) states after 3yrs 3 of the committee will stand for re-election...it does not say what posit -
Nice one honestly mate read if she's not mated she will remain in season and can be dangerous she will remain in season but if you keep her hutch clean theres little chance of it being dangerous either of these will take her out of season, she could have a phantom pregnancy or may not but she will come back in season 6weeks after being mated Y.I.S Leeview
