[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1296335, member: 18945"] Went down this morning a spoke with a couple of locals that I know to be pretty much outlaw hunters. I think they are going to come down one night and do some shooting. Since I have zero experience with snares, I went by the gunshop and they happpened to have two 330 conibear traps. Started to get them both---glad I did not. Somebody culda mentioned it takes 2 men and a boy to squeeze them springs together. (I hate being a dam invalid) After several unsuccessful attempts with pipe clamps and all other manner of already owned contrivances, (brake spring pliers/wood clamps/giant channel locks) I watched some videos on how to do it with paracord or small dia rope--or how to make a pair of setters from a 1/4 bolt/nut and 1" x 1/4" flat bar and a grinder.. Now, do I place it flat on bottom near an entrance or drive sticks in and place it standing up where they have to go thru it instead of stepping on the trigger? (that thing just looks dangerous as hades to me--no matter which way it's done sure hate to end up back in the horsepital with a broke up hand) [/QUOTE]
