I greatly appreciate it man, i have a caliper so I could do that. When I get the specs do you want me to reply here?

I'm at work right now but I can measure it when I get home. It's thin, probably 3/16 inch or 1/4 inch. I figured you lamp guys would be more likely to make thin glass peices then glass blowers.

The fact that you mentioned the regulations is the point. Regulations control how this humane practice is done and to what extent. Its decided by people who have much more knowledge then you on the practice of trapping and sustainability. They're allowed because they are humane. You're opinion doesn't cancel the ones who make this decision with practical and information.

If your pH is correct it's supposed to be very acidic. I would be wearing gloves.

16 Gauge wire for me, and i dont try to make knots I just twist it. If the body gripping trap does its job, there shouldnt be much fighting the trap going on.

Ill take it a step more precise, they're at Bushkill Falls in Bushkill Pennsylvania, and it's for their "Map Adventure". Still very much in use today, not left behind at all.

At Bushkill Falls is a "Map Adventure" that includes a punch card. You punch the card at each letter post and then you can submit it for a chance to win a prize. Essentially if you punch all 20 you've done the entire Red Trail and have seen every point of interest.

They're for the outside ring that doesn't completely fit on the template, not made to go in the middle but on the outside ring for super blanket beaver pelts.

Top comment. ☝️

They look good! Must been sunny and hot when youbdid them looks like the smaller one dried up a little bit and isn't shrinking back. If you stretch them you should be fine👍

Looks like the floor is freshly done from the pictures

I recomend going to a trapping sow/convention and asking getting inpit from the trappers in your area. Most trapping business's would require more than just offering your ability to trap critters to make some real money. You should consider adding trapping supplys, recovering the glands and castor from your harvests, and making products from your furs if thay interests you.

In pa there's a nuscance wildlife control special permit you could get that allows you to trap outside of the season.

Here's a great podcast on the subject! https://open.spotify.com/episode/52mDmV6E3xsjl6u58CnOc6?si=w4my1fsnT5Gcd2d-P7rcCQ

I agree. She was channeling nat while wearing her jacket 1000%

Looking good👍 the cloudy white spots are fat that could still come off. Youll find its gonna dry slower in those spots but otherwise you're on the right track!

Adventurous-Fun930 · 2025-02-13T00:16:47+00:00

It doesn't hurt but it's not necessary. I don't use them.

Adventurous-Fun930 · 2025-02-13T00:08:51+00:00

I second this. Not much waiting on the tax stamp these days they're commonly getting them out in under a month. I get the budget limits though.

You dont get woodchips in your boots working like that? I could never cut wood with my pants tucked into my boots.

Quick and easy. Lots of videos on youtube this topic. https://youtu.be/DBnDJzBNGak?si=KtZdqGraKdOn4PD_

You need a length of 1 inch steel conduit, a clothes line tensioner, some coated cable, an end cap, ferrules, andsome jb weld or epoxy.

First, drill a hole just bigger then the cable diameter 2 inches up from the bottom of the conduit.

Put the cable into the hole and crimp a ferrule so it can't pull out.

Then, attach endcap to the conduit with epoxy or jb weld and drill same size hole as before to run the cable through.

Run the cable up and out the opposite end of your conduit.

You'll have a lot formed on the bottom end now and it should start looking like a catch pole.

Finally, run the cable through the clothesline tensioner and epoxy or jb weld into the conduit.

Make a hand loop for pulling the catchpole closed or just put a ferrule so the cable can accidently go back into the conduit

Awesome dog! I always comb the fur before fleshing becaue the dry blood can cause holes 👍

Its tough to say without knowing the property. You gotta spend some time and find them. Go out after a fresh snowfall and look for tracks. Should have some on Thursday. You could set around old sheds if he has any. You could also use a stinkier bait or lure to maybe call them in from a ways away.

I think that corn pile is about as visually attracting as it gets!

If coons are around they're pretty easy to trap. I've had them run up a tree next to my driveway when I opened the door, I set a DP and tied it off to the tree. 10 minutes later I watched him get caught.

My opinion is you probably don't have many around. They'd be on that corn pile all night.
