  7. cheers matey so far they have been fine with brambles and under the gorse bushes with no escapees yet and they haven't tangled with twigs and thorns more than hemp or spun poly either. we have done 4 sessions with them now in rain and dry and i waited before posting this topic and embarrassing myself if it became a failure. but 18 nets for £2 worth of material and rings from knackered old nets if we get one season from them its worth it, maybe more seasons judging from what iv seen from them so far
  8. i might get some flack for this post but my mate made some nets from hi viz orange wool from a knitting shop for an experiment and they have been great. wool costs about £2 or 2 bundles and he has made 18 nets from these. they have got soaked through and dried out fine and caught loads of rabbits now with no problems and been high viz are easy to see in the corner of your eye or in the brambles. has anyone used wool as a purse net material?

  19. hi all i have a rws stirrup pump that hisses slightly during the last part of the stroke when getting above 130 bar. it seems to be coming from the bottom of the pump where the sleeve hits the base. its definitely a small leak as you can feel it when you put your hand next to it. is this normal and if not what is it, a seal? any help greatly appreciated!
  20. i have been told that the twang from the hammer spring can be taken away using the plastic wad from a 12 bore cartridge, and is a common modification on these. does anyone know how to do this? many thanks tomb
