Thanks for sharing your knotting technique. I found it much easier than the traditional/standard method of wrapping the thread around one's hand.

Thank you very much for your excellent video. I just finished my second net. The first was a single color and 15 rows. It made a lot of bubbles and my grandson loved it. My second one was 27 rows in red, white and blue. I am looking forward to trying it out. Thanks again, Happy Bubbling!!!

hello magic grandpa) your video is wonderful! Thank you very much! It is so amazing to have someone teaching to make stuffs of fun and hapiness. I had a question which diameter have your ropes?

The yarn is 0.45 grams/meter.

Thanks for sharing this detail. It is more work than I think I will put in. But I did like your explanation of the poles. I have an issue though, the pole ends turned white. where it was getting wet from juice. I used Rustoleum Advanced which said UV resistant and for outdoor. Maybe it was not fully cured? Or is that why you Spar cover it as well as enamel? Is the enamel necessary if it will get white when wet? It was just that it took some time to get the hockey tape on and now it looks bad. I rubbed off allot of the white which I assume was a coat of the clear coat but not sure I can restore it. But more so, I want to prevent this from happening again.

The catch is that you have to put a couple coats of sanding sealer on the tape before using the enamel (sanding optional). If you don't, the adhesive in the tape dissolves a bit and bleeds into the enamel when it's painted. I put spar on the enamel for extra durability. I usually use an oil-based spar. I like the water based stuff better but it takes 5 coats instead of just 2.
