greerie 2 Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 Hi I'm thinking about making my own purse nets while I wait for my young ferrets to get old enough to take out. Going to be a year off yet :-( Can anyone recommend a easy way to start? Been looking at this on flea bay to get me started. What are people thoughts? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Spun-Polyester-Net-Kit-Red-ferrets-purse-nets-Twine-/251112037478?_trksid=p5197.m1992&_trkparms=aid%3D111000%26algo%3DREC.CURRENT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D14%26meid%3D720244982921690717%26pid%3D100015%26prg%3D1006%26rk%3D1%26 Thanks Matt Quote Link to post

The one 8,513 Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 Dont matter where you buy your kit but i wouldn't use good twine while your learning and see if theres somebody beside you that will teach you its far easier than trying to follow a book or dvd and you can ask any questions that come up mate Quote Link to post

saintsman54 15 Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 I learnt with just a book, made a few mistakes, worked it out in the end though. Would have been more usefull to have someone to ask though. Quote Link to post
Adam_Chuck 256 Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 I used all those videos also they are by tegater of here. I get all my supplies from agouti great quality and service. Just take your time and follow the steps carefully. After you make 1-2 nets you get the hang of it Quote Link to post
Rake aboot 4,936 Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 I can do it but it drives me mental My missus make all my nets now, Agoutis web site has the best vids for learning from ATB Quote Link to post

air gun ant 1,666 Posted July 23, 2012 Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 yep mistakes will be made but you soon get the hang of it bud, i started with a kit a bit like that but without instuctions then just the vids that are above. i can pretty much do it with my eyes closed now, and it is strangely addictive once you start you dont want to stop! atb ant 1 Quote Link to post
