Ruggers; once you've bought the materials how many nets before it's good value (don't know if that makes sense)

It depends how fast you are to pick it up and get the knots tight mate but dont buy expensive spun nylon etc to practice and you will save some money

Has anyone ever worked out how much you save making your own nets? I make my own but Id say its only realy worth making your own if you get some satisfaction out of it.

Two spools of twine, a 100 rings and a spool of drawcord will set you back around £40 if I remember. You should get at least 25 nets out of that, and that £40 is much less than you would pay for 25 decent 4ft nets. So to me, thats good value if your making, not selling, but then theres your time to factor.

I make purse nets but very rarely use them much easier to use stop nets through the hedges. I make purse nets at shows when Im demonstrating netmaking, obviously its quicker and easier to complete a purse net than a stop net. My purse nets are 4'8"(23 rows 21/4"excluding rings)shaped to 18meshes in the centre, on the other hand my stop nets are at least 15yds for the shortest up to 50yds+(depending on capacity of spool) pointless just making 50yds when you have twine left on a spool imho.

I certainly get a lot of satisfaction out of making the nets but saving money does nt come into it, its the fact when I did use purse nets I couldnt/cant get them the size I needed.YES i could use smaller nets and end up looking for a bigger net in the bag(cant ever recall looking for a small net to cover a hole)you can put a big net on a small hole But you cant put a small net on a big hole so I made them one size fits all

The stop nets 14meshes plus selvedges I generally work on getting 18yds out of a 500gm spool hence 3spools =50yds+ which I run onto 50yds lines thus over 100% bagging

sorry just got back from ferreting but you e got the answer you want by the looks lol but ill still give my view, ti practice I used string from the post office watched a video n went at it made loads of mistakes what got me was they kept coming loose I realised that I didn't go over back of my hand so make sure you do lol n I do 8 rows to start with do another 8 then go to 17 do 4 rows of 17 then reduce back to 2 rows of 8 it does take time but it pays off it took me about a month to get it right now I take my time n do a net a day watching tv at night just be patient n you'll get it pal hope this helps too, plus all these different ways of doing them everyone does them there own way Edited November 15, 2014 by ruggers13
