Does anyone have experience with expandapan coni pans ?

What’s the best ones to use for mink that will fire on thieving weasels also?

Thanks

You can drill holes thru thin pieces of 4"x4" 1/4" thick pieces of wood and put them on the two trigger wires and bend down.

Pans made out of 3/8 plywood or corrugated plastic work great and are easy to install. Just staple the trigger wires to the plywood or slip through slots in the corrugated plastic. In order to function properly a pan trigger must angle up about 20 degrees over the back-trap jaw with the trigger dog pointing to the box entrance. The trigger should be set up so it takes a bit of pressure to fire, no trigger waxing unless you want weasels and squirrels.

The only constant in trapping is change so keep learning.

i made a bunch for myself in mink boxes, I used heavier screen, around a 1/4 inch squares maybe. It worked pretty well. I bent the drivers 90 % at t he end so they don't fly off.

X3. This works amazingly well. After trying campaign sign material and 3/8” plywood I settled on the plywood.

I just ordered barkers coni pan add ons. Pretty simple to do. And I can always switch over to wires for bottom edge sets. Don't know they are as good as expand a pans. But alot cheaper
