leslie harold gedge 1,390 Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 how does the+ +door lock jok cant make it out Quote Link to post
jok 3,244 Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 If as I think, when the door drops, it goes over the floor plate which then stops the door from re-opening. Reason being that I cut the welds and pulled the plate upright enough to stop the doors return. Sounds far more complicated than it really is. Have a look at the guy on YouTube which will explain far better. Quote Link to post
Lab 10,979 Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Think that foot plate will be a problem for foxy going in. 1 Quote Link to post
jok 3,244 Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Yep. Worried about that but now will have to wait. Couldn't think of a better door stop. Only used what was available. We'll see. Quote Link to post
jok 3,244 Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Do you like the idea though? Quote Link to post
Lab 10,979 Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Yep. Worried about that but now will have to wait. Couldn't think of a better door stop. Only used what was available. We'll see.Any badgers where you are??? It's a good idea......similar to what I've used I the passed. Never caught a fox....? Forever letting the black and whites out though. Quote Link to post
jok 3,244 Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Nope. Brock ain't on the horizon. This trap has only one problem. That is Charlie. Quote Link to post
jok 3,244 Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Brother in law asked if I had anyone with a fox trap. Answer. No. So I made one. Now anyone improve on this and I'd be very happy. Quote Link to post
Squirrel_Basher 17,100 Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 Forgive my ignorance mate but does the trap have a floor . Quote Link to post
jok 3,244 Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 Nah. We elevate it just enough to let him get out and come back to try again. Quote Link to post
