I'm trying to get into making my own netting, eventually to make things like my own hammock, My dad used to do it alot for long nets for rabbits etc but that was over 3o years ago and he's gone where the rivers are always full of fish and the skies full of ducks and pheasants so does anyone know where I can get some help. I've beeen trying to follow the advice in the primitive technology books but something just doesn't seem to click.
Are there any net makers on this site who can advise me, I know there used to be a little brown booklet, about 3"x2" on the subject but don't know who it was by or it's title.
Ultimately I'd like to make my own cordage and then use that to make a hammock to have a more interesting and satisfying thing to sleep in than my shop bought hammock.
Any help, information or suggestions gratefully recieved.
