Is it worth getting a couple MB1216 Traps? Everytime I get a Beaver in a 330, I think gosh the Trap sure look small on the Beavers head.
I would be using them for Blind Sets.
I need some help pushing me over the edge to buy a couple. Let's see those catches.

Some say 660s are great, so there's certainly people that like the 1216. Me personally I'll stick with a 330 or two.

I much prefer my custom 10x 24 and 10x 29" Belisles
The MB 1216s were said to be Slow... my Belisle conversions are anything but. Are plans available for those? I can cut and weld.

I think I am tracking what and where the lift kit gets installed. The trigger appears to be pretty much a custom built item also. Is the wire material from a coat hanger? Coat hanger wire is too soft. I use wire off of an electric fence but I'm sure you can find something else compatible. The conversion is simple, the hardest part is making sure you put it back together correctly before welding.
Common sense is a not a vegetable that does well in everyone's garden.

That would work...but not long enough pieces as a political sign holder
I can make it all one piece. Guess I will be trolling for political signs in the ROW also.
