    Is it net bags or plastic bags you're looking for? I'm not sure where you are in the country but there's a place in Cork that do the net ones. Let me know and I'll find out if you want.

    Quick search, they're on done deal. http://www.donedeal.ie/heating-for-sale/net-bags-for-firewood-kindling-vegtables/3730631

    Thanks for the replies.

    I'm using pallets.
    I'm hoping to use net bags, monofilament!
    Based in Mayo but I'm in college in Limerick.

    For what its worth I'd be looking for something approx 50cm x 28cm

    That's a lot of work. A neighbour of mine started that business a few years ago himself and his sons doing it all by hand. He has since got a machine for the job and didn't look back.

    I have decided to get them for sacks.ie in Tipp.

    Yeah I can imagine the work to be quite hard. If it gets to the stage where I need to get a hopper machine I will!
