It was originally the double door design for space, then transitioned into a single door. Two main advantages is no door sticking up in the air where wind and birds mess with it. Second it can be set perpendicular to a trail with out the door being across the trail. it is also super easy to weather proof in the western climates. Very interesting! Dang I wanna see if I could build one now wonder however if out moist and wet wonders would cause issues with it vs the dry winters y'all get YouTube expert "The bird of Hermes is my name , eating my wings to keep me tame"

Rich lost momentum on the project and sold his inventory to another Nebraska guy who had them at the NTA National in Spencer several years back. This is the story I got from the guy selling them. I bought 5 for $190 as he loaded them up at the end of the show. They are identical to John's (actually Monster Tom's) design except for the pan and are excellent traps! And as Paul Harvey used to say, "That is the rest of the story!" Last edited by 4 Fur; Yesterday at 08:35 PM. Life Member NTA, FHA and Iowa Trappers Association
