Just curious, I have always boiled, dyed, waxed traps in a big drum outside over a wood fire. I am thinking of trying to dye my smaller traps in a big turkey roaster, and wondered if anyone has tried it already and if so, how it worked out?
Thanks
Jim

I wax mine in a crock pot. Dye them though in big boiling pot over a fire.

Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.

I use the turkey fryer also but use a 30 gal drum and about ten or fifteen gallon of water. A cover helps with heating .
