I'm making live traps for bobcats. I have the type of door on them though that swings down once they step on the pan. I have them all the way done except for the pan system has got me stumped. Can someone PLEASE post a picture showing the way they keep the door open and then how it sets off. Thanks, CoonD

Is your door flush with the end of your trap or is the door recessed?

I do not have any pics of the one I make like this one, but mine is essentially the same as TexA except I use a piece of chain to run from the treadle to to the rod.
