Re: Two more nets model Gye under construction
Finished the new net, a heaver duty Gye model and i think the best one i made so far
All oak wood hoop and pole with bamboo handle and Acacia wood knob, the spreader block from brass in deco style
The handle can be taken off to make it smaller (transport lenght 98 cm, lenght with handle on 150cm, extended length 220cm :-)

Evert - that is stunning; absolutely a work of utter beauty and function. I have no idea how you even begin to craft such a net.
