im like a kid at christmas
« on: February 13, 2011, 09:14:52 PM »
guys i just want to say thanks for all the info you guys put on here this is a great place to learn
i know i have been on here asking and telling just wanted to give KUDOS to you all great pics and tails
i have many ?s floating around in my head about this trapping thing im new this is my first rodeo
so please bear with me many ?s to come im sure like heres one ive been thinking about
do any of you guys use sleds not the ones you ride but pull behind sleds i have a old 8ft wood toboggan thats in need of some tlc was thinking of cutting it down and making a box at the back like the old todler toboggans with the seat back and side rails
maybe 4 ft long just enough to stack some animals on insted of carying them could use a milk crate or a bucket insted of building a box bungee cord it to the sled think it would make things a bit easier for the tram roads that you cant drive on just one of many ?s

 I have used several types of toboggans over the years,from a kids plastic one to the otter types. The otters work real well because of their sides( They also float.)
 Brad, you can get about as creative as you want.All the items you mentioned will come in handy , at some point in time.
 You now have another project to keep you occupied.
