scothunter 12,609 Posted May 24, 2008 Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 How do i get in touch with this guy from dunbarton? Quote Link to post
goosehunter 0 Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 I bought nets from this Guy last year and i was very dissapointed with them!! the way the nets were stitched to the rings was terrible!! When i complained all i got was a mouthfull of abuse!!! After making a few enquires about this Bloke i was told that he is just new to the game and would'nt know one end of a net from the other.

Caravan Monster 323 Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 Has anyone ever bought from them. I am just speading the word because I got a net kit an somestuff off them and its all great. If I am correct, and I would rather someone more learned than myself confirmed it, I believe the twine JBS sells as hemp is in fact flax. The spun and braided nylon/ polyester he sells seems fine though. Nothing wrong with the stainless purse net rings either. If an experienced netmaker did a sticky topic on identifying different twines and their pros and cons, maybe even recommending suppliers, I'm sure many of us beginners would really appreciate it...
