After some metal brackets, to repair a wire mesh fence. They need to be a custom shape, as it used to be bolted to wooden fence and we now want it bolted to a brick wall. It needs to be fairly strong, so 4mm steel should be thick enough or even 5mm. The pic below shows what I am after. If anyone can do it, PM me a price and I will get back to you asap Cheers SwissTony

Do you have your own squirrel army yet?

Those trip wire, blank shotgun shell things, but whack a bit of rock salt in the end of the cartridge. Won't kill a person, but it will sting a little bit

Ooops totally forgot the internal divider :wacko: For a strap, you can use an old seatbelt (free from scrapyard, or take one out of your parents car, they wont mind). Once you cut it to the correct length, melt the end of the strap with a lighter to tidy it up and stop it fraying. Feel free to knock one up using cad software, I would do it, but I haven't learnt cad yet, just photoshop. The design above, was done with mspaint for ease

I replied with this on the other site you posted the same message to. Hope it helps

Was expecting a different kind of Escort, never mind

If you click on the product, there is an option for pack size (2, 10, 50 e.t.c.) Its expensive if you just buy 2, but if you buy 100 its around £5-£8 I guess its to con the people that only want 1-2 O rings at a time

Some of us prefer to do the whole thing, rather than buy most of it. It maybe cheaper and easier to use sheet netting, but I personally like the idea of catching a rabbit in a net that I have made from scratch.

£1 a time here. Love your sig chimp. Made me chuckle.

Anyone ever tried/heard off a teardrop shaped net??? Uses less string than a square net, plus more meshes to tangle the feet up at the part the rabbits run on. Something like this: ....Top ring/peg end ..........ooooooo .........oooooooo ........ooooooooo .......oooooooooo ......ooooooooooo .....oooooooooooo ....ooooooooooooo ...oooooooooooooo ..ooooooooooooooo .oooooooooooooooo .oooooooooooooooo .oooooooooooooooo .oooooooooooooooo .oooooooooooooooo .oooooooooooooooo .oooooooooooooooo .oooooooooooooooo .oooooooooooooooo .oooooooooooooooo ..ooooooooooooooo ....ooooooo

One of my mates had a 400cc 33bhp from 17years old If you pass the category A test at 17, you can ride a bike up to 33bhp. after 2 years of taking it, you can ride anything. The 21 years old rule is if you want to go straight to riding any bike, bypassing the 2 year wait.

Same post as above, but slightly further down the page is a clearer picture. http://www.thehuntinglife.com/forums/index...st&p=399094

Must be a bloody great dentist chair.

Same here Tomo I have two bobbins of the snappin shite, did you also find that it twists like fook as well no mattter how carefully you load the needle. tangly,twisty, snappy shite will be used as garden string about all its good for When I first started making nets, I was going to use good old hemp, but due to the fact that people sell fake stuff, I gave up on that idea and decided to go for spun polyester. Its a lot cheaper than hemp, no drying to worry about, and it handles well to. Get on to John Hubery of here for some super sexy yellow poly or maybe just bog standard green.

Used to do kids parties with an inflatable laser shooting game+ bouncy castles and also I used to run a paintball site . Now I don't do anything due to a spinal injury, which I am still recovering from

A lot of people recommend soaking them in cuprinol wood preserve to make them last a bit longer. Just a thought, were they definitely genuine hemp not some fake stuff passed off as hemp?

I start my nets with 7 on the ring, +1 each row up to 17, 2 more at 17, then back down to 7 on the end ring.

No digging at all Thought we were going to have problems at one point, the hob had been down for quite a while and the mk3 was having issues due to some corrugated iron sheets that were buried close to where we had entered him. We gave him plenty of time to do his thing, then he appeared with a blood smear on his chest. Pretty sure that it was from one of the previous rabbits we had got as one of the ferrets must have chomped its nose as it was very bloody. Plenty of young in them when we gutted them. Practically every rabbit we got, was a very decent size, as no one had been contro

A few of us went out over the weekend, to give the little beasties some work. First up was a 8 holer on a fairly steep bank covered in brambles. Netted up and unleashed the little albino jill. After about a minute, out popped the first rabbit of the day which promptly got pounced on. The jill followed it out, but went straight back down as soon as the rabbit was out of her reach. A couple of minutes later, the second rabbit got caught in one of the furthest nets, so the chase was on to get there in time before it got free. Waited around for another 5 minutes, with the jill popping out a

Ask the guy who runs the ferret box company for one of his straps, not sure how much it will cost through. Drill a hole in the both ends of your box the same size as your bolts. I would put the hole in the centre of the box horizontally, and about 1 inch above centre vertically. This should help keep the box stable and stop it from wanting to spin (hope that makes sence) Make a hole about 2 inches from the end of the strap. Melt the edges of the hole using a lighter, or maybe heat up a bolt and push it through (grip with pliers, don't want any burns do we), to seal the strands to
