I have a bunch of left over from a concrete job, sound pretty but I don't really want to add the other 3 feet. Ya can't miss fur if yur traps are out somewhere. Or so I've been told.

A smooth 1/2" rod bends as easily as rebar....maybe easier. Last edited by Swamp Wolf; 02/19/25 07:29 PM. Reason: Spelling error Thank God For Your Blessings! Never Half-Arse Anything!
