Would you say better than the metal ones>

 

Just wondered do they slide out of the ground easy?

Only yesterday while out with a hound pack the lad that does the terrier work had nets ,and he was using the old stove or fire poker with the ring top cut down to about 10inch it looked the buisness

Plastics no good for big stuff u need metal. tent pegs are not to good they bend in tough ground the poker sounds a good 1 they need to be 9"inch long"like my flute" or they come out in loose stuff

I made mine out wooden branches drill hole in the end but not to close to end so don't split through or old broom shank cut into loads peac sharpen ends depends on ground as well

Metal pegs are best. Wood snaps in frost and plastic bends.

 

Get a fabricator to make you some up cost next to nowt.

 

Need to be at least 6 inch long, drill a hole about 3/4 of the way up and get them to point the ends with a lathe or grinder.
