Great video Rich. I don’t trap, always wanted to though. Love watching u and Sandi on Wild TV.
Excellent job on the boxes.
God bless and be safe out there.

Thanks, your plans work great, I didnt have a dado blade so I just drilled a 1/2 hole and cut to them with the table saw. I like how little waste there is .

Thanks for sharing. I have made the tapered box and like the design for the same reason you do, transporting them.


Cheers guys.

I did an experiment last year, where I had two boxes beside each other one had no holes in the back of the box and the other I had holes drilled in the back so the wind/draft can carry the scent of your bait thru. The one with holes I kept catching critters the one without holes didn’t catch anything but a mouse !! Proof is in the pudding !!

Great video, as a 18 year carpenter, now a millwright, use some eye protection in addition to the ear muffs. Love your show and podcast.

Thanks for the great videos! For the 120 box what are the dimensions of the tops and bottoms?

[bakinne]

Great build!! Can i get a copy of that design?

Thanks for this. Very informative. You seem to know your way around a shop. I'm surprised to see you wearing gloves around the saws. If the blade ever catches the glove, it could pull you hand into the machine. Love your channel so please take this comment as well-intended.

What is better to use green treated or spruce plywood. Cause some the red squirrels like eat my marten box what I notice they don't touch the green box, they sure like the spruce plywood, they like the glue

[deanc]

I'm not going to show you that because its unsafe LoL. love the show.

[jasondigby]

Can you post dimensions please I can’t enlarge the pic enough to see the blueprints.

[ESoutdoors]

Is there a reason you don't put them trap side up? or it's just a personal preference, because I always have them hanging up.

[alexharper]

Rich how far down do you go from the top to start your 5 degree cut.

[anthonymason]

How many boxes were you able to make per sheet?

Make it so easy and fast with all that heavy
