  • Netting clip help needed!

    Heya all, in need of some help again please.

    This time it's help with netting clips. I have just invested in some 16 mm tubing to make fruit cages with, and have enough net to catch a small shoal of fish. I had been using bamboo and fixing the net onto it with clothes pegs, but they won't fit on the tubing and I cannot seem to find a product or solution to do the job for the life of me!

    Hope someone knows of anything I could buy to sort this as it's getting to the time of year when everything tries to eat or dig up everything so I really need to get the cages up properly asap so I can start planting!

    There you go pal, just push them onto the tubing.

      Use cable ties to tie the netting to the poles...........clip the poles together using the Screwfix clips.......

        I was going to say exactly the same as Newton about cable ties.

          I bought the clips as they are re-usable & easy to take on/off.

            Thanks all, hugely appreciated!

            Next comes the really hard part of convincing my 4yr old and 6 month old to let me build it!

              You're sorted now, but I just use twine, tied in a knot

                  I'd have to have had enough sleep to manage the knot though!

                  I do quite often assure my four year old I'll velcro him to the ceiling, and I am sure he'd agree to let me do my planting that way!
