Hey there other marine nuts any cracked nuts like me here?lol!
I make mine with an old mop or broom handle and cut to size with a hacksaw.
You need to shape the end of the timber to fit into the marine grade stainless tube you will cut to suit.
These I use an angle grinder first to make the started slots and finish with the drill bit of the same diameter as the stainless.
This is the hole for the ninety degree bend in the stainless you will see further along.
These pics of the easiest way to bend the stainless.
This is the locking stainless to keep the net together.
This is how the stainless should sit in the net handle.
Cut a section of the stainless for the locking part of it.
Always file off the stainless after cutting it, inside and out.
optional screw hold
optional handle
netting
plastic protector edge
finished net
