  1. One things for sure. You didn't catch her Beaver?
  2. Ken, get those traps out. We wanna see them. ?
  3. It really fascinates me the vast array of trap designs that are out there. Not only vintage traps, but modern ones too. Some very clever individuals, thinking up all sorts of idea's, and most work very well, when it comes to catching, and killing things. Here is a Canadian trap, that is very interesting to look at. I don't believe they were in production for very long, so are very much sought after these days. It's called the Gabry Bionic Trap, which is ratcheted. You can increase the power of the trap, by literally winding it up. I'm almost sure the inventer makes the Belisle conibear
  4. Welcome aboard. Your not alone. I'm a vegan at least one day a week.
  5. Yea I suggested that would be a good idea from there. Anyhow, here it is. Nice little video
  6. Such a god dalm pity, because that would have been one hell of a book. Twenty years time, there might not even be a Fenn trap. There might not even be a British designed or made spring trap any more. Where did it all go wrong?
  7. That's just proving everyone else's point ?
  8. Such a pity, nothing came of it fella. Sounds like there was a lot of work put into gathering and gaining information for the book.
  9. What I will say laddie is, if it wasn't worth your while going back for the camera, then it wasn't worth your while sticking it up here, without the pictures. You'll be eaten without salt at every opportunity, in this gaff.? I believe you by the way. Can see it as a very possible situation, but never seen it myself personally.
  10. Thanks for sticking up that link laddie. I will have a good look at it later when I have some free time, cheers!?
  11. Made this for the wife. Had to store the birch for almost a year before actually making the thing.
  12. You should stick the trap one up on "Old Traps" thread in the trapping section laddie. It would fit in there nicely?
  13. Isn't it amazing. Least popular traps at the time, becomes most sought after traps, a few decades later
  14. Nice write up Wolfdog. Those snares, apart from the size difference, are very similar to a mink snare. Actually a buddy of mine sent me over some mink snares made from 1×19 cable. Those snares were lightening fast, and worked very well on mink
  15. Nearly pissed myself when I heard this ?
  16. Wolfdog, tell us about your setup. Cable size, lock you use, loop size, and set up for beaver snaring. Any pics of your sets? What's a good location? What do you look out for when looking for snare locations?
  17. Amazing what works over there, that wouldn't work so well here. For fox, as a rule, we find, the bigger the trap, the better. Guillotine style wouldn't be as popular either. I have seen a lot of trappers use that style of trap over there especially for cats, and they catch well.
  18. Really like this version of Cosmic Dancer
  19. An English artist that receive little notoriety till after his death.
