pie-eater 377 Posted October 30, 2013 Report Share Posted October 30, 2013 the stuff ginger dave is useing is not the white twine as in pics pie eater put on.i make nets myself and i can get the twine dave used or the twine pie eater was thinking of for free as much as i want but prefer the trusted stuff ie spun polly or braided nylon.i would possibly try a stop net out of the stuff dave uses even a long net not purse nets.thats only my opinion guys How do you get it for free? Having an affair with a butcher? Quote Link to post

AS YOU SAID THREELANDER....SPUN POLY OR BRAIDED NYLON ARE THE FAVOURED OPTIONS......BUT I MUCH PREFER THE BRAIDED NYLON...ESPECIALLY THE 0.75MM...MAKES A GOOD HEAVY DUTY RABBIT NET...OR A SUPER STRONG LIGHTWEIGHT FOX NET...AND IT REPELS WATER MUCH BETTER THAN SPUN POLY DOES,AND IT DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE ON THEM WET,FROSTY,FREEZING,SNOWY MORNINGS SETTING THE NETS... ITS THE SAME THICKNESS,MAYBE A TOUCH THINNER THAN THE SPUN POLY... HEAVY DUTY RABBIT NET.. LIGHTWEIGHT FOX NET.. 1 Quote Link to post
ginger dave 63 Posted October 31, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 Out yesterday and used the nets made from the butchers twine, caught rabbits no problem, bagged well, easy to handle and untangle, just the durability needs testing, but time will tell, regards DAVE Quote Link to post

pie-eater 377 Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 hi pie man i,m a butcher of sorts myself mate and we use both types of the twine but the hate useing the coloured stuff mate Ah right. I use spun poly and the only downside to it is it soaks up so much water. I might have to try the braided nylon at some point. Quote Link to post
threelander 81 Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 the braided nylon is good stuff if you get the [BANNED TEXT] stuff mate.makes cracking nets imo 1 Quote Link to post

I might have to try the braided nylon at some point. if your spun poly soaks up water its not spun poly, for this very reason you cant dye it. Its coloured in the manufacturing stage before its spun, nylon will soak up liquid and can be dyed after manufacture Y.I.S Leeview Quote Link to post

It does soak up a lot of water though. Quote Link to post
