From the creator:

[Concept for the Net]

The trees in my garden – persimmon, pagoda tree, laurel, camellia, plum, maple, etc. They grow quickly, and I hate to cut them down. I wondered if I could use the branches for something, and since I couldn't find a net I liked on the market, I decided to combine these branches to make them.

[Frame]
◆ Using laurel branches, which are flexible and relatively resistant to breaking after various trials.
(However, drying them is difficult and requires skill.)
◆ Coated with epoxy for reinforcement.
◆ The joints of the net are reinforced with carbon thread after gluing (strength tested).

[Grip]
◆ Primarily uses pagoda tree and laurel.
Laurel is good in terms of strength and weight, but there isn't much of it, so worm-eaten wood with character is also used.
◆ Pagoda tree is a dense material with high strength, but it is heavy.
However, it won't break even if attacked by a bear.

[Coating]
Multiple layers of epoxy (2-part) are applied.

[Net]
The mesh material of the net is colored with water-based varnish.
(It will be stiff at first, but will soften with use.)

* Since these are made by combining available materials, no two are exactly alike. Please understand that these are considered test products and prototypes.
