This is how I see it. If I caught a fox in a rabbit snare I would not post it... To me its akin to a 16 year old kid putting a photo of a lamped deer up on the internet. i.e its new to them and there excited, without thinking about what there actually doing. Should a fox caught in a rabbit snare be shown here. No. Should a member know better Yes. There is no argument, its not the done thing. Now I'm sure some of the other members who have arisen would disagree.Well post it on your pro trapping, weekend hunting, back slapper forums.. If its the done thing. Also I'll reopen this as

I've just came onto the forum for a browse and I see someone has removed the post. To be perfectly honest I would of too.. I've caught cubs in rabbit snares. But I wouldn't advertise the fact. As said, it is NOT something to go showing on here... Trapping section or not. Its like showing a fox caught in a fenn trap or bodygrip..is it right and would you show it? Honest replies welcome.

Where they on fence snares or peg snares? They will sometimes fray and the strands will snap on fences, if they rub on the fencing. Peg snares its more likely to be the twine that gets snapped and chewed by the rabbit. A straight snapped snare is normally the work of a dog or fox taking the rabbit or you get the head left in the snare. In all cases the snares will kink and twist with movement, these can be straightened once you remove the rabbit, you normally get a few catches from them before the strands start snapping, this could also be down to if they have too much or too little tw

Hello Wagbi, David, a member on here got his Beretta SP done and they did an excellent job. I'm sure this was the place that done the work. http://www.hydro-graphics.co.uk Although I'm not sure if they would do repair work for small patches. Wouldn't harm to give them a call.

Get a window or velux fitted moll

Sorry..

would never happen it would get edited and contourted so much you wouldnt recognise it Probably Paulus, we can live in hope though, that one day some sensible pro hunting footage would be shown..

Its the first time I have seen anyone post on here from the BBC, normally they contact via email. I've had heaps over the years. Personally he was probably just looking for info, and was genuine enough. They have ranged from wanting people for reality TV shows, to numerous documentaries with Martin Clunes like this http://www.smithsoni...w.do?series=714 I know people are paranoid and hateful of how the hunting community has been represented...I think someone who is level headed and keeps himself on track, so we cannot be misrepresented would do hunting the world of good, especially if

No idea Moll, did you add a lot of images in one post? It's on the link Ian....only 14. I normally add more than that as you know I think anything over a certain amount may be shown as links, I'm not 100% though.

Could you not put the last section in prior to finishing off the internal leaf? Must be some way to do it.
-
You can't use celotex with an existing wall ? So you can't build up an inner leaf to an existing wall and use fish tail wall ties or helical remedial fixings with clips as your building it up and add celotex as you go along, others seem to think you can..
-
Todays regs on insulation for a garge conversion, would be 60mm celotex with a minimum clear cavity of 50mm. the inner wall could be block with the insulation tight on the block cavity side or wood/ metal stud. to save on space wood or metal stud is best as the celotex is put in the stud saving you around 4"/100mm right round. Your probabily looking at least -90mm celotex for the floor, need to work out the P/A calculation. and the roof round the 300mm of rockwool. If its going to be habitable I was told 100mm or 75mm cavity if its insulated plaster to achieve the required U value..

No problemo

Ah that would be better... I'll try getting in touch with a BCO.

fenn traps only half catching
IanB replied to trenchfoot's topic in Snaring, Trapping & Pest Control
This is the point I'm trying to get across, some armchair hunter/trapper who goes out twice a week and sticks 10 fenn traps out max and is in cahoots with some organisational powers suddenly decides they are not humane after all these years and pushes to ban them, with there added influences... Then voila everyone has to take a course, wear a special badge or use a different trap... as I say, there are serpent's amongst us, and it does worry me. Ithink you have gone slightly off topic Ian ,the point people are trying to make is ;if the trap is set correctly, it can be more humane than if i -
Site owner using text talk !!! OMG what has become of the place !?? hahahahahaha lol. We are human, its just bad when every other word is txt bollocks like [bANNED TEXT], u, etc.. its plain lazy.. and an abbreviation like lol, just wouldn't be the same saying it....
-
Alright Sean, just spoke to the Architect , he said 100mm block 100mm insulation is recommended, or he said you could use 75mm cavity with insulated plaster boards.. Probs go for the 100mm thermalites and 100mm kingspan... I was told to stud it out, but better to be safe than sorry and use a cavity.. It will be a garage conversion to make a bigger kitchen and utility room mate..
-
Whats the score with cavites lads, would you recommend 70mm cavity or 100mm, also what thickness of kingspan/celotex 50mm or 75mm? This is for converting a garage, as its single leaf, although it could be studded, I think the double leaf is a better option, for mounting stuff,etc.

Lumphammer was posting racist and on the edge topics a lot and yourself and him, were begging to be banned and wanted warnings.. Well it was just a little warning to shut you up.. , so others didn't think it was clever to trying to antagonise to gain a warning.. You've been a good lad since, so it obviously worked?
-
aye i can see it too, lol. if you go on the link that moll put up and read through her post you cant see them. It might just be all existing new threads from when I've modified it.. Smilie above in your quote works as you say..
-
Good going Magwitch can't beat it.. Millet we can have a run out one night, I need to get out feel like a hermit been stuck in that house for a fortnight destroying things,, Top your freezer up, maybe take the NV.
-
The smilies actually showing for me in your quote...lol
-
When you add up, digging out foundation, drainage, bricks/blocks, studs, plaster, electrics, plumbing, roof, insulation,floors,windows,doors it just rockets thats without labour, and actually getting in and kitting it out how you like.. Architect said to me he works it out at £800 square metre for extensions..
-
I agree Malt, a mate built his own double garage and the materials alone were around £13000, although he had to go deeper on the foundation because of adjacent trees... I'm actually on with getting a lot of work done to my house now.. its a nightmare, but I'll get there...
