Has anyone made their own netting ?

Like the idea of just chucking tail ends and net all tangled up on the compost heap at the end of the season

Um no, I can't imagine the amount of time it would take me to do it would be repaid by the result. I buy the good Lidl stuff and it has lasted for 6 years so far, I'm sure many more to come. I do put the hemp string I use to string my wigwams with on the compost heap though...

Whilst 'Out East' I saw a pilots survival leaflet and it showed how to make a hammock from the lines of your parachute, this was using the same technique.

Wish I'd kept it.     ;)    Cheers,     Tony.
