I think the skill of setting a clap net and making and feeding a patch up will be a thing of the past.

Last time I saw a full clap net for sale it was around £100'ish quid? In Portugal.

With a current lol

They make the cone so it's a snug fit doesn't have to be sticky soon as the cone goes over there head they just sit there as they feel vulnerable an better to sit tight than flap about blind. It's just like when you hood a bird of prey they go from flapping about when training to sitting stiff lol.

It did mate, but I just found a far cheaper one, also in Portugal, the guy who offered me one for a One'r must have been trying to stiff me, but his was hand made,so maybe not.
