Re: Figure Four Trigger Trap Pre-made?

They've arrived.

Got them in the post this morning after a bit of too and fro with HM Customs.

Looking forward to having a day or two to play around with them and get my head around them, then getting them set up and working in the field.

Watch this space...

Re: Figure Four Trigger Trap Pre-made?

They're not just for packing away as it happens. Mentioned it to a mate at the Garrison clay shooting club. Turns out they've a vermin issue, so I'll be using them on rats, rabbits and squirrel shortly.

I'll publish a review with pics/instructions etc for sure.

Re: Figure Four Trigger Trap Pre-made?

Right that's four of the aluminium bad boys on order. Off to the in-laws this weekend to get the knives sharpened, and some shed time whittling away.

Next, a purse net...

Re: Figure Four Trigger Trap Pre-made?

Yeah I'm getting there. Need to keep my knife sharper as well. All my kit like this is packed in a grab bag which I usually keep in the vehicle. Yeah my father in law is big on making things and 'make do and mend' and has a load of tools. I'll hit him up and try it in a bit of relative comfort. I th...

And when I am out I'm usually practising how to not end up needing to use the survival skills in the first place. With pre made I can set up one or two fully functi...

Re: Figure Four Trigger Trap Pre-made?

Yeah I am getting there with making them. Sometimes they even work. It's nice to know you have at least one good to go before you have to start trying, more of a psychological approach for me I guess. I like the first link where you have one pre made and then get to carve one. Has anyone used Apocab...
