Well having had a masterhunter set up for over 15 years the nets are not the deciding factor imho, his basket makes the difference nothing sticking up to hold the poles . the poles sit below where the net is fed in behind it closer to your body. running out you put your first pole in walking backwards with your hands flat on the basket and the poles come up to your hand. Simple Y.I.S .Leeview

Non at all, having attending county shows introducing school children to ferrets, he does a main ring demo describing ferrets as the fiercest animals in the world for their size it makes it harder for teachers to let the pupils come over to be introduced to the ferrets. We do get mobbed by these school children and we are more than happy to pass the ferrets round including the teachers who cant believe how soft they really are and does no harm having kits handled Y.I.S Leeview

Mick Dadd will there, as will Rabbit Fever selling ferretting gear doubt they will have any ferrets on but pakefeild will have but unlikely to let you even hold a ferret, Torchy will be on the stand too Y.I.S Leeview

MK1 micro collars were only done in a 15ft model, the one above on ebay is a standard 8ft collar Y.I.S Leeview

Id suggest connecting two if not all of the levels to each other which give all the ferrets 3x as much floor space to exercise in

it may be new to you but ive been using it for close on 30 years. the twines go back a lot further some of these mills closed nearly that long ago and research shows the labels dating from 1920, the Barbour twine goes back years and is now labelled as Barbour Coates (nothing to do with waxed jackets) still higher standards than the far eastern imported twine texture like barbed wire in comparison Y.I.S Leeview
-
Alan Clarke exchanged twines long before we actually got the Guild of Net Makers up and running, Bill Sneddon and Derek weldon admired it last year when they saw it and then this year Alan Salmon was more than interested. I had the twines with me at Weston Park and the most asked question was " Where do you get this from?" I cant divulge that for reason someone will be in there and buy the lot ,I did give some away to visiting net makers. As for not fancying the wax once again you have not seen this twine and give your opinion, its waxed for a reason to lubricate it when stitching, its no
-
well as you said earlier you have nt seen it but your happy with Engles twine , I have seen and tried Engles and my preference is linen all the way.
-
they hang well on the pins some bulkier than others, I have 6strand S twist. 6strand braided various waxed linens and some 10 strand all hold on a single knot

Ive been enthusing over it for a long time and yes I do think its better imho, but when other renowned net makers have seen these nets they are very complimentary about the quality of the material and the nets made from it .Price wise you can get cheaper material for making nets but like most things you get what you pay for. the most frequently asked question i get asked do you have to look after it as you would hemp? simplest answer is Did you ever have a sole drop of a pair of Dr Martens? .
