Quiet pellet trap
« on: March 01, 2009, 06:28:43 AM »
For those of you who are thinking of making your own "Quiet Pellet Trap", I just received 12 bricks of duct seal from hardwareworld.com. They are $1.38 each. Shipping was $9.20, so it comes out to just over $2 per brick. Loews and Home " Despot"  both charge over $3 per brick plus tax, and I didn't have to drive 20 miles round trip to get it. The item# is RNHCR3. Each brick is 1 lb. and measures 1"x2"x61/2".

Here’s a place that has 5 lb bars for 9.99, not as good of a deal, but bigger bars.  Mclendon  Hardware.  Not sure about shipping cost!

Question about using Duct Seal......
« Reply #7 on: March 03, 2009, 07:21:41 AM »
I'm thinkin' that my trap is going to accomodate 8.5x11 inch card stock, so I can print my own targets as I need them. What thickness should the ductseal be inside the trap. I imagine 1 inch is not thick enough, but I don't want to get carried away............

you can always add a steel plate in the back for added safety.

That might be a good idea........just don't want to start adding too much weight to the trap...........have to bring in a forktruck to move it around the yard........
