Your Latest Trap Design
« Reply #2 on: April 27, 2008, 07:12:59 PM »
Tim,
   You should sell these new traps, they look great. they would ship at low cost if not put together, just cut and drilled, ready for screws and finish. I have shot out the guts of 3 Gamo traps and 2 Beeman traps. I am stuffing them with electricians putty (same stuff you are using - I get mine at Home Depot) as the back baffles are gone gone gone from my traps. Have you thought about a target holder that takes playing cards? They are almost free used and show a great pellet hole.

Tim:

These look great.  A long time ago, I saw a fellow with a box he made for his camp stove.  He took short pieces of PVC pipe, capped them and attached to the box with U-bolts.  Then he had 4 smaller OD PVC pipes that just slipped into the larger "sockets" to make a standing box that held his cooking stuff and held his Coleman stove on top.

I was thinking of trying something similar with a tripod arrangement and a box-style pellet trap so that it could either sit on a table top indoors or be used with the PVC tripod as an outdoor freestanding target.

In any case, I would be pleased to purchase one or more of your pre-fab traps.  How much?  Can you make both a larger (8.5 x 11 inch) and a smaller (as pictured) version?
