James Dixey Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 I have just bought a Magnet with the 2 arms containing 2 solid decoys with wings that spin as it rotates. My guess is that real pigeons will pull more effectively than the supplied decoys with spinning wings. Therefore I am looking for a way of supporting 2 dead pigeons on the arms in a lifelike fashion. Has anybody produced one that I cud buy or has anybody got a diagram with instructions as to how to make such a cradle? Many thanx for any help James Dixey East Kent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Do the decoys you have come off the end of the arms ? If they do, what "fittings are you left with ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urikastu Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 (edited) You could form a couple of cradles out of old wire coat hangers. Cut the hanger part off so you have a long piece of wire with sharp ends, form the cradle with the middle( just basic enough to lay the bird in). The ends need to be about 4 inchs long coming out each side of the cradle so as to pierce the wings, attach the cradle to the rod with araldite and twine remember it doesn't have to be fancy as long as it works Edited November 14, 2008 by urikastu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
