The green net is 70yds and braided linen. the white undyed net is 6strand and 45 yds. and the black waxed linen will be around 40yds I did have others but 3 was enough to keep my eyes on

Thank You fred, unfortunately todays market veers to quick sets making experts in longnetting, did you come in and see my longnets? hung up waiting for the top and bottom lines (which were done over the weekend) the amount of visitors that commented on the nets proved there are still some dedicated long netters about . my nets are made end to end by hand NOT sheet netting using linen from the footwear and saddlery makers, mainly Barbours Lisburn N.I. i get regularly comments about it will rot like hemp, Dr Marten soles never fell of or saddles fall apart. Any way Good Luck fred

fred90 I was on the stand knitting away all weekend .did you speak to Alan? because Im certain he would of let you handle both the nets and the poles. I was impressed by the lightness and strentgh of the poles they are pretensile tapered tubes with a solid 3" ss point drawn into the bottom of the pole. any comment on his gate nets?

Thats a Carrick Bend knot i use it myself and imho IF it slips it can only tighten not come undone.(try unpicking one). I see you in Australia is the twine spun polyester or polypropolene by any chance?

That's true. Which celeb would you vote for to run Britain? How about Sir Alex Ferguson? Proven winner. Not scared of hard decisions. Suffers no bullshit. Working class origins and never forgotten them. Can't stand toadies. Yep, he's my man. Wouldn't really consider Alex Ferguson as a celeb to be honest, but I'd be more then happy for him to run the country..... only downside is hes Scottish.... lol well let him run Scotland then Y.I.s Leeview

well ebay thats your choice, myself Im still with the mk1's sold some on here when I was cutting back a mk1 box and 2 collars were going for £135+p+p. when you only had the mk1's to choose from debens were selling a box and collar for £46, a lot less(3X) than people were willing to pay for them on ebay. so getting them for % of new price seems a bargain to me Y.I.S Leeview
