Tiercel 6,986 Posted December 28, 2014 Report Share Posted December 28, 2014 The best twine you could use is Engel's best quality you can buy. http://www.engel-netze.de/smart5/eng/twines-and-ropes/314-spun-polyester-spun-pes-twine/index.htm. For a long net I would recommend this one. http://www.engel-netze.de/smart5/eng/twines-and-ropes/314-spun-polyester-spun-pes-twine/spun-polyester-twine-no-nm209-ne129-approx-08.htm TC 1 Quote Link to post

Mr Wilkes 2,974 Posted December 29, 2014 Report Share Posted December 29, 2014 I make most of my long nets out of engels 20/9 spun poly. They are made 12 or 13 mesh deep plus salvege always double strand and roughly 4 1/2" mesh. [/url] 5 Quote Link to post
lifelong cumbrian 1,826 Posted December 29, 2014 Report Share Posted December 29, 2014 I MADE A COUPLE OF NETS WITH ENGLES .9 AND 1.1 TWINE, I LIKED THE 1.1 IN BROWN BEST, IT WAS NICER TO KNIT WITH THAN THE GREEN, SOUNDS DAFT BUT THAT IS WHAT I THOUGHT. Quote Link to post
Mr Wilkes 2,974 Posted December 29, 2014 Report Share Posted December 29, 2014 That will be the 20/15 spun poly.. i use that for the selvage on my 20/9 nets. i do have a few single strand 20/15 stop nets (41/2" mesh) which are very nice to work with. Quote Link to post
Rabbiting man 1,191 Posted December 29, 2014 Report Share Posted December 29, 2014 How long does take for engel-net to post their twine to the uk. Quote Link to post
NELS0N 457 Posted December 29, 2014 Report Share Posted December 29, 2014 How long does take for engel-net to post their twine to the uk. Takes a few days. Dont go too mad an order a large amount, i may be getting this in large quantities next year 20/12 in 2 shades of green 20/15 and possibly 20/09. Plus 20/24 in all the bright colours for purse nets 3 Quote Link to post
sprockerjay 74 Posted December 30, 2014 Report Share Posted December 30, 2014 Good news put a post up on here when you sort Nelson aidy Quote Link to post
Mr Goodcat 69 Posted December 30, 2014 Report Share Posted December 30, 2014 That's ideal for many people NELS0N. As sprockerjay said if you could spread the word when you have it that would be grand. With most people (myself included) if you need a top up, with all the costs involved it's not financially wise just to order a few spools from Germany. So a so a service like this would really help out. Quote Link to post
