for the price they charge for clear cedar boards. it was nice to get 67 rat boards(3 sizes, nafa specs) some weasel and marten boards swell.

Sweet!!! I am jelous and wish I had some thin cedar boards like that. I got to make a few more and try to keep my eyes out for wood all the time

Nice, did cut those out at the trapline? You have better access to get in now?

I have't been out to the line since spring, been watch the forest fires reports. Some were fairly close.

Looks good Brag! I scrounged up some laminated wood from an old wooden desk that I had taken apart to make boards for myself. It was the right thickness and it worked out well. My only concern is that it might be a little hard sticking the pins in because the wood is harder but it shouldn't be a show stopper. I'm always on the look out for scrap material to put to use.

yes, milled out on the line.

my summer gig puts me on the line all summer.

it's nice to be able cut trail, make cubbies and other stuff after work.

lucky

is that a home made mill with your chain saw or something you bought?

I use those plastic signs from election time. I trace them out from the boards I bought from Trapper Gord. I find pelts dry faster due to corrugation of the material, and are very light weight and easy to store. Any blood or grease wipes right off. I use these just for rats only.
