Looking for shops that sell wire mesh

[yang yang]

I ever hear from some people out there that somewhere around Sim Lim tower, there's a hardware shop which sell the above item. But i don't have the address. Anyone can provide me with the address or contact? Thanks

Those hardware shops are opposite SL Tower. Just cross the road and you can see those 2 storey shophouses. You can search around there and it is not difficult to find.

Good luck

There is a shop selling nettings of various kinds, metal and plastic as well as string, etc. in Block 30 Kelantan Road. This is just off Jalan Besar (i.e. one of the small roads leading off Jalan Besar) very close to Sim Lim Tower and in front of "Thieves' market" (where they sell second hand stuff and knick-knacks). The stuff is clean unlike some hardware shops.

@ fisherw: Are the mesh sold there tight enough for Riccia?

[fisherw]

If by that you mean small gaps, I believe the shop does sell. There are many types and one would be suitable. There is a shop on the main road (Jalan Besar) which I caught a glimpse of driving out and which had rolls of wire netting outside but the whole shop looks "rusty" and dirty. Might affect water quality.

It was a while back so sorry for being vaque. Anybody else know the Block 30 shop I am referring to?

Sorry! I have no idea on the size.

But I know there is a hardware shop @Serangoon North, near Petmart do have it.

Yah like those NA selling, stainless steel mesh, the holes just right to grow riccia. if can get big sheet cut ownself, can do any shape to fit the scape.

Alternatively, you can buy plastic mesh from Daiso for Riccia. I used that as well for Riccia and Moss. It is cheap and easy to cut as well
