Back in OZ
Hi Everyone, I’m back in Australia from 6 weeks in China with my wife’s family and visiting a couple of factories. I’ve gorn from wearing thermal underwear to working up a sweet in a day. I’m in Brisbane at the moment and then on the road back to Mildura during this week, so I might be a bit slow getting back to some blog posts this week. I promise to get back to all comments as soon as I can. Thanks Brett

New Mud Crab Pyramid Net
Next month I’m going to start work designing a new Pyramid Mud Crab net for the nothern Australian market. At this stage the net will be 900x900mm in base size, follow our traditional pyramid shape and have 4 funnels (one on each side of the net). Coming from the Mildura area I’m not that familiar with catching mud crabs so I’d love to hear from anyone with some ideas that would improve the net design.Pyramid Crab Nets
Pyramid Yabby Nets in QLD
Over the last two months we’ve been setting up dealers for our patented Kulkyne Pyramid Nets in Queensland. We had to modify our original NSW design to fit in with QLD laws but the nets now fit in with both states. We’ll be posting dealers on our website within the next few weeks or you can ask your local fishing and camping shop to see if they have stock. Pyramid Yabby Nets
3.0kVA Inverter Generator
I’ve been working with the R&D Engineer at our factory over the last couple of weeks on the concept for our next model generator. At this stage we are planing to us the Yamaha 175cc engine which is expected to give us a continous rating of 2.8kVA and maximum of 3.0kVA. This generator is expected to weigh around 28-29kgs which we’re pretty happy with given the power output. The length and height of the generator will also be fine but the width will be around 370mm which is wider than most on the market with the Kipor 2.6kVA being around 320mm. We looked into a lot of other engine possibilities but kept coming back the the Yamaha for power to weight ratio and reliability.
I’d love to hear any comments on your thoughts as to the specs and width of this model as it is still on the drawing board at this stage, or you can view our 2kva model Inverter Generator.
