I'm still enthralled by the various materials used and how they complement one another...and who knew Tufnol could be made to look attractive? It reminds me of that long discontinued chocolate confection, Caramac...anyone else recall it?
Thanks once again for sharing Dave!
I used to love that chocolate/caramel combo. It came second only to Milky Bars when I was a kid

Re: Making a Richard Walker Net.
So pleased to see the finished results, and not surprisingly they are tremendous.
A superb net Sir, commensurate with your skills.
I look forward to seeing a fish gracing its elegant lines.
