Strained Chains Trapline Modifications

Haven’t been up to much lately aside from swapping out all my crunch proofs on my coyote traps. Boy, that’s about as fun as watching paint dry!
Here’s one neat project I did I thought I’d show…
Popped the pan rivot out of some triumph number 3s and put a bolt and nylock nut in their place. Works pretty slick!

Round 2 of the pivoting drags ready to be shipped to their forever home

Just for fun, how many swivel bodies are in the pile? Bridger #2 for size comparison.

Over 1,000 of these sold in the past year. They are in every state that allows wolf trapping and
are also being used for mountain lion depredation trapping. Numerous catches and happy repeat customers. If you’re looking for a bad mother of a wolf swivel with minimal bulk let me know. I’ll be building more here in the near future.

* these are built with 1/4” stock and bolts, not your typical 20d nail swivel.

Been a bit since I posted last, awful busy late winter/fake spring.
A few projects I’ve recently finished up. Steel prices are dropping a bit from where they’ve been so I’ll be back to building here soon!

Overkill coyote drag did it’s job. Didn’t go 20

Between trapping season and cost/availability of steel I really haven’t been doing much lately.
Here’s a project I just finished up. Duke #2 dogless. Laminated, tips bubbled, jaws leveled (permanently, not bending the levers) and all connections tacked shut. These will be hammering Texas fur in no time. Check out Asher Bros Outdoors on YouTube to see how they do! https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCwDRby3Xny4rLKM6eo8cQ5g

If you’re in the west and are looking to get a hold of some Duke traps, get a hold of Mike Hicks, he’ll take good care of you!

Hey everyone, meet well, who knows what her name is. She’s an angry vegan who thinks hunters should be hunted. Goes by Jane-doe-13 on Instagram. Should you find yourself in an online altercation with her don’t be concerned, her stamina is as weak as her “facts”

Look out folks, tough guy alert!
Reacted with a 😡 to a pile of my posts then I’m assuming blocked me 🤣

My goodness, it’s been a busy summer!
Is it October yet?!
