Gate net


Recommended Posts


I've got a couple of gate nets that where thrown in when i bought a long net and was wondering if i could turn them into stop nets? and if so how would be the easiest way to do it? (sorry if it seams a bit thick only used purse nets before)

My partner in crime Magwitch has a couple of bits of long net spare, we were talking today about getting 4 poles from Magnum Trap Company and converting them into stop nets for bisecting hedges , I think they are about £3.95p each and come with grommets supplied.I will be sending for them next week.The address of the company is at the beginning of the Forum homepage.

Grommets? what are they for and how do you fit them?

They come allready fitted and are slidable ,they act as a stop for your line to which your net is attached.

either that or save yourself however much per peg and hank the nets up on mini end pins made from some scrap 6mm steel and use a couple of hazel pegs which are completely free. this is what i do and they are great, save your ass when one slips a purse net thats for sure.

 

oh yeah tying in the bagging if you hank onto endpins makes life much easier.

Tying in the bagging is it as simple as it sounds (as in tying the net to the top/bottom line every so often so you have lots of short sets of bag connected but separated by the knots?) and if so how far apart should i do it?
