- In Part 2 I give an in depth look at how I build the rail system and the door to the cage trap. Not a welder? No problem I use a very basic hobby welder to do this and I learned to weld as I built my cages that I have used the past two trapping seasons. Enjoy the build and if you are building along with me let me know how it is going for you. I love to hear from you guys.

Hi there, I just took the trapper education class in AZ. Jim Ball mentioned I should reach out to you .I am on a budget and I would like to make some cages. I am in Surprise AZ but can drive. Maybe we can work out some sort of trade?
Hit me up in the Facebook Group. Link is on my banner.
When I cut my wire off the roll I cut every other wire down one side then cut the other side. So, i have a one inch piece of wire to wrap Around the corner every two inches.
I don't use the J-clips anymore.
I make a lot of rabbit cages. I use election sign wire to re-enforce around the doors.
I am thinking about building traps
Out of powder coated wire closet shelving. I find lots of it in trash piles.
Thanks for the video.
Liked and subbed
In reference to the build of the rail system for the 18" long door.....How long should the rails be above the top of the of the trap with the door open.....Total length of rail when door is completely open.
I make my rails 24 inches so for the 18 inch door it would be 6 inches over
Where’d you find your channel for the front sides ? What size are they like 1/2” C channel ?
I actually make it out of 3/4" x 1.5 " rectangle tubing. Just split it down the middle and you have 2 3/4" C channels for the rails.
@@OutdoorMike okay cool I was actually looking into 2” x 1” rectangle tubing abs splitting it cause I couldn’t see any square tubing that could work good thanks brother
How will setting the Lock in front of cage
I cover that in part 3
Very good informative video. Please remove the extremely loud, obnoxious music.
I am glad you got some good info from the video. Sorry the music was not to your liking. I will keep an eye on that sort of thing in the future.
Only thing just remove that BGM
BGM?
I'm following your vid to the T getting ready for cats in Utah thanks.
One question. What size of wire are you using to attach cage to formed steel ?? Thanks
@@cjoly2261 I usually just use what I have available as long as it's thick heavy gague. I want to say it is about 3/16th thick not sure what gague that is though. The important part is that it holds strong to the formed steel and really pins the wire to it. I hope this is making sense. 🤔
@@OutdoorMike Thanks Mike I'm burning the #9 wire in . Probably same stuff. Keep the vids coming great job thanks
