Source for cargo netting?
 
I want to fabricate a custom cargo net and wonder if there is a
supplier of raw netting material - no hems or mounts or borders. I
don't want the crappy stamped fabric "tailgate net" sold in discount
auto parts stores - I prefer sewed nylon webbing or similar.

Anyone?

Thanks.

I'd try a bone yard, I see them unused in the trunk of everything
made in the last ten years.

I looked everywhere for one. I didn't find one that I liked. I wanted
something with a "corded" look rather than the airgate ones. I went to buy
bungee cords instead at the local fleamarket, cheap, cheap. They had a 3' by
5' cargonet made out of bungee material for $6.00 CAD, I was extremely
happy. It has 14 hooks on it and it's very versatile.

Maybe a fleamarket or something....worth a try. Better than $80

Re: Source for cargo netting?
 
If you are looking for a tailgate replacement, why? Net tailgates don't do
as advertised and improve aerodynamics or save fuel, in fact the airflow
goes forward there. Tie some yarn on and see.
As a motorcyclist I don't like the stuff that falls out of net tailgates

I have been using the net from my wife's Audi for a while. The problem
with most of the OEM nets is that they are stretchy and too small. I
want non-stretching material to form a barrier, not stretchy to fit
over irregular objects. A wall rather than a blanket, in other words.

I want a custom shape, so I need the raw material, if I can locate it.

No. it is not for a tailgate replacement. I want to restrain objects
in my non-Jeep's cargo campartment - mostly lightweight stuff like
sleeping bags and duffles full of clothes that I stack up to the
ceiling against the back of my steel Milford cargo barrier..

I only mentioned a tailgate net because that is the only readily
available non-stretchy net that I am aware of, that I might find
locally. They are usually pretty crappy products.

So, what's the worst thing you have run over or nearly run over? I ran
over a fresh dog carcase once.....

that's what I got this one for, it's great. Ultra snug, with 14 hooks it
doesn't matter how much or how little you're packing, you can make it work.

Re: Source for cargo netting?
 
that's what I got this one for, it's great. Ultra snug, with 14 hooks it
doesn't matter how much or how little you're packing, you can make it work.

Motorcycle shops sell small bungee nets. They are quite useful in my
Jeepster too.

I jumped a dead deer one night, that will wake you up. A guy in front of me
lost a kitchen stove but I was far enough back to avoid it, and i was almost
hit by a 4x8 sheet of plywood on a city freeway. I am always noticing small
stuff on the road, since my life depends on it. Shoes, tools, nails,
firewood, clothing, auto parts, porcupines, produce. A lot of produce is
hauled in open tubs in the Valley, garlic, oranges, lemons all smell great,
but tomatoes and pomegranates are messy. A few weeks ago on 5 from Hanford
into LA I saw busted watermelon about every 2 miles. I'd hate to follow that
truck on a bike!
