Thanks for that, certainly no competition for the step by step book but really enjoyable reading with some interesting traps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thumpersniper Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 looks a good book, i wonder if it has a trap like the ones i make, i have three myself and they are fantastic for squirrells and rats. I gave one as a christmas pressie to a keeper in shropshire when i was on a gap year from uni and he was very sceptical and thought it was a joke . . . until he tried it then bored all my co-workers on the farm and estate banging on about how goos it was! Its a wooden box with a seesaw in it, il put a picture on here sometime to see if anyone has one. Cant remember where i read about it, in a very old book i think i just made up the dimensions and it worked SP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2nd Barrel Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 (edited) Yes Thumpersniper it does have those in it :look: Funnily enough that was the first trap I ever made and probably what started me off. This is it. I found that the traditional design had a few limitations as you couldn't easily see or extract what you'd caught, once you'd caught it. In the old days they just dropped a pinch of cymag in and job done. The modified design in the book resolves that as you can see. More details on the website 'seesaw' pages. http://www.fourteenacre.pwp.blueyonder.co....rovedSeesaw.htm Cheers John Edited February 6, 2009 by 2nd Barrel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
