We’ve long recommended the “fold and then roll” method when moving nets. It requires no tools, and rolls end up much like they began—with all the posts on outside and the folds of net rolled up inside.
But we also know many folks use only one or two rolls. E.g. backyard poultry keepers who don’t often move their runs and are using taller, more cumbersome nets (42"–48"). For this, the Twist Butler offers a small convenience. It’s a clever way to wind-up the netting while keeping the spikes organized to reduce tangling.
For folks moving nets daily or weekly, you’re likely to find the Twist Butler more trouble than it’s worth.
