longnet making

[ellir0305 9]

When you buy sheet netting does it always come withh the top and bottom threaded and tied up?

 

what is the lowest z (whatever that stands for) you cna use for a ggod longnet?

 

how do you tie a drop net, differently to a longnet?

 

thanks

Nets will arrive with top and bottom tied when you get your cord tye it to one end of the string tying the top or bottom of the net it will have been threaded threw all the meshes of the net and you need to pull your cord threw the meshes top and bottom using that string.

Depending on the length of the net will determine how deep the sh*t you are in if you pull that string off without attaching your cord.

I would advise you to put insulation tape over the knot you tye so that it can be pulled threw without getting stuck on each and every mesh.Very good luck.

 

A drop net is out of your league at the moment so don't go there

 

Z is the way in which the nylon is woven but if you think of it as a measurement of strength you won't go far wrong.

Z is the breaking strain of the thread 4Z=40lbs 6Z=60lbs etc etc

A very rough guide

A drop net consists roughly of metal poles, bottom of nets tied to metal rings (sliders) that slide down the poles, and a cord which is attached to pins that go through holes in the upright poles support the sliders, rabbits out in the fields the cord is hidden away so you can pull it without the rabbits seeing you, the pins are pulled out of the poles and the bottom of net drops into position (top of net fixed) rabbits are then driven into the net.

sounds pretting simple it could be rigged into a normal long net ?

By the way the poles are about 6-7ft high.
