TOMO 26,046 Posted February 17, 2013 Report Share Posted February 17, 2013 Lifelong,,, the 10z sheetnet and 4 z I have from advanced have a salvage on,,, are you sure it's not double stranded where the running lines are bob? I'm certain most machine made sheet has salvage on,, cos there for the fishing industry ,, and where we have a 2 mil running line they have 10 mil or something blue nylon rope,, so need the strength. But I stand to be corrected,,, best ringing him lifelong, Quote Link to post
Tiercel 6,986 Posted February 17, 2013 Report Share Posted February 17, 2013 The confusion may occur where the selvedge is the same materiel as the body of the net. The only nets I have ever seen without a selvedge are reject nets that have been sold cheaply. Ropeseller on ebay was selling them. As Tomo rightly states all netting that is used for rabbiting is made for the fishing industry. TC Quote Link to post

Dazzam 239 Posted February 22, 2013 Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 Had a look on the Advance Netting website. What netting do you order for making longnets as it's a bit confusing unless you're familiar with all the terminology. Many thanks. Quote Link to post
TOMO 26,046 Posted February 22, 2013 Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 Daz you have to ring the number,, and tell him what you want. Just say sheet netting for rabbits,,, he knows the score,, but it's not advertiesed on the web site Quote Link to post

How many meshes long are the sheets 900 or 1800? I have bought off Advanced in the past but most of the sheets had selvedges missing and some even had holes in the nets. check the netting over when it arrives is a good idea. TC Quote Link to post

TC the total cost was £25.20 with vat and postage iv just been on the phone with the bloke and he says there 850 meshes long is this good or bad ill definatly will be checking the net as soon as i get it for damage and missing selvedges atb pal Quote Link to post
Tiercel 6,986 Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 850 meshes will make a 47 yard net rigged by halves or 100% bag there are 18 meshes to a yard of rigged net. 850 divided by 18 = 47.22 TC 1 Quote Link to post
