Well, I though I'll try.
Boing Photos by minsk80 | Photobucket
I used manila rope (I think it's 5/8" thick), then I ordered a 1/8" SS rod(6 feet long), also I used 3/4" PVC pipe and caps for the ends.
I drilled 2 holes in the caps, wrapped the manila rope around the SS rod and used glue gun to glue the rope with the rod to the inside of the 3/4"PVC pipe. I left about 3-4"of the rod protruding through the caps for bending it into loops for hanging.
The trick is to do one end first and get the rope tight around the rod before completing the second end.
All the material was about $10 max.

WHAT??? She doesn't like that AWESOME net??? Have you tried moving it to a different location maybe? Or hanging it in a different way? You can also try to attach some of her favorite toys and/or treats on there to see if she will take to it then. I sure hope she comes around and changes her mind about it because that is one fabulous net you made.

Great job. Are you taking orders?

Great job. Are you taking orders?

Thank you,
I don't mind, really, but I think the shipping of something like that will cost more than the thingy itself.....

Very inspiring to see yours, thanks!!
