How about using some window screen. Most window nets I have seen have been home made.

Go to home depot, buy a roll of net for about 5-9 bucks and you can make as many as you want. they are located by the windows and skylights. They have plastic and metal.

someone posted pics awhile ago using the little meshy fabric found on backpacks, inside of luggage (ya know, that sock, underwear pocket thing on the underside of the lid?), and other bags. I think I have a sleeping bag pouch made of it too...

they just cut to shape and shoe goo.

<edit>
got a pic of my sack pouch....

go to a craft store and look at the crosstitch stuff (I think that is what it is), It is plastic stuff -comes in a sheet with square holes...used to make coasters,tissue box covers etc. It comes in many colors besides clear too...

That thought corssed my mind earler after i had posted this thread. If i cant find anything else, that would work nicely. I am looking for the square grid style window netting, i would like to get some actual nylon netting like the real stuff but i may be pushing it to come across something like that. Thanks for the input guys, i appreciate it.

Walk through your local dollar store and just look at the crap they have on the shelves. Made my windows with black coated steel from a file holder and it cost me a buck!!!

I have some polished stainkess mesh i got out of a busted truck grille i changed for a guy he didnt want the inserts from the old grille. I plan to use them for some things on my tuber body i am making out of stainless rod, but the window nets i'de like to keep as a square grid if can. I'll get er figured out, Dollar Stores are always good for stuff like that.
