michael.denigan Posted October 13, 2016 #1 Posted October 13, 2016 I'm currently somewhat deep into a rebuild of AL's older version of La Fayette's Hermione as an East India Company frigate. This is my first model whatsoever, so I have managed to run into many small dillemnas. One of these is the lack of any adequate hammock netting mesh. Does anyone have a good suggestion for a source? Regards, Mike mtaylor 1
EJ_L Posted October 13, 2016 #2 Posted October 13, 2016 Depending on the scale of your build tulle may be a good solution. It is the fine mesh commonly used for wedding dresses and veils. mtaylor 1 "A Smooth Sea NEVER made a Skilled Sailor" - John George Hermanson -E.J.

John Allen Posted October 13, 2016 #4 Posted October 13, 2016 Depending on the scale of your build tulle may be a good solution. It is the fine mesh commonly used for wedding dresses and veils. Any Jo anns, Micheal's, and Hobby Lobby or any fabric store comes in multiple colors. Good luck EJ_L and mtaylor 2 John Allen Current builds HMS Victory-Mamoli On deck USS Tecumseh, CSS Hunley scratch build, Double hull Polynesian canoe (Holakea) scratch build Finished Waka Taua Maori War Canoe, Armed Launch-Panart, Diligence English Revenue Cutter-Marine Model Co.
