keeper 0 Posted October 25, 2008 Report Share Posted October 25, 2008 If you go to the dowel section of B&Q they sell strong dowel rods 90cm long by about 2cm round, just put a point on them and treat with preserver they are 69p each and ideal for quickset nets as they are lovely and smoothe and stack well without snagging,if you are using traditional nets go for electric fence posts,grind off all the wire holders except top and bottom,they are approx £1.20 each but last forever and the spike at the bottom is a bonus in hard soil. jobs a good un Quote Link to post
