DIY Bug Net Instructions?

**Mickey.223** · 07-12-2011, 12:18

I'm wanting to make my own (first project ever) TED Bug Net, just like the one Pipsessewa showcased in this thread http://www.hammockforums.net/forum/s...ad.php?t=33714 The problem is, I haven't the foggiest of where or how to begin. Does anyone have any basic bug net plans? I did a search, but didn't really find anything. Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Mickey.

P.S. I'm not above the idea of commissioning the work...but would really like to try it myself.

I'm not aware of specific directions for the TED bug net. Best to ask on the TED thread.

Here's a few links to other styles that may be of some help...

Thanks gmcttr! I don't know why my search didn't yield any of the links You posted. I think this gives me enough understanding to try and make one for myself.

Cheers,
Mickey

My site search gave me zilch. I had to use google with "site:hammockforums.net bug net".

I also knew what I was looking for.

That's a good tip on the google search. I had the same problem when researching for my bugnet, since hammockforums search engine won't return results for three-letter or smaller words. Therefore I've been writing it is "bugnet" all one word. Not technically correct spelling, but searchable.

You solution looks so simple without having to spend a lot of money and a few minutes to work on it. Definitely opening my eyes to the many possibilities in hammocks.
