Does anyone know of a trapping related business that would either manufacture or handle plastic bodygrip cubbies? I'm not looking for the newspaper tubes, plastic frosting buckets, or other similar items that trappers modify and use. This would be a bodygrip trap size specific, roto-molded, tapered to be stackable, type of cubby. You can PM me too. Thanks, Rick

I don't know of any that are commercially made. I built one out of the corrugated plastic campaign type signs. It looked good and was light but it slid far too easily in the snow and I had the wind blow it over a couple of times. I was all set to start making them in bulk but after the prototype, I think I will stick with the collapsible wire cubbies.


I have nothing clever to put here.

I think The Snare Shop is where I bought mine a few years ago.

My family runs a fiberglass shop that could make something like that easy, but I assume the price for fiberglass would be slightly more than plastic would be. I don't know anywhere that makes custom plastics.

Check with Trapset I think he handled something like that at one time.

We use to manufacture the RTS Collapse A Cubby here in Nebraska. The box company that made them is no longer able to due to the plastic on there machines for a variety of reasons. We have searched for manufacturers in US and over seas but no luck. They all have trouble shutting down machines to set up a run of plastic. The plastic also contaminates the pure cardboard waste for recycling. Bad deal as we sold a lot of them.

There probably is Dean but the cool feature was the corrugated cubbys collapsed easy for storage and transport. That gets more complicated and expensive with injection mold.
