Ricky-N.p.p 0 Posted August 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2006 If you search old posts for "making nets" theres a link to a video on how to do it but i dont have sound and my knotts are slipping ?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Bigbob Posted August 9, 2006 Report Share Posted August 9, 2006 Are you keeping your knot on top of the meshboard ?? Do your knot pull it tight then do it again only taking in only one strand of string coming down ,this is what i would call a double knot and even on 4z nylon this wont slip Quote Link to post Share on other sites
