Must have been because we had trouble and had the IT guy dump a lot of garbage that had piled up mostly because my dialup isn't fast enough to download programs and they just kept piling up trying to download and not having enough time.
Anyway [image] [image] [image] ;D :P

I love the Barringer rig. I've modified it to accommodate my trapping style.

We make the stakes out of straight oak limbs, 20"x1 1/2"x2". Drill two holes 3/4" from the top for the wire. Then another hole 5 inches from the top for the snare. We don't attach the snare to directly to the stake though. We attach a 6"-8" piece of scrap cable with a sterling swivel. This is where we attach the snare.

Our snares I think are 30", just large enough to make an 8" loop. We load the snare also. This results in very few hip caught coon. Also with the short snare the trails aren’t ruined in 2-3 catches.

As to coon chewing the stake apart, it has never happened to use in 4 years of using this method. They might chew the top a little, but most time is spent at the edges of the catch circle away from the stake.

Do you reuse your IDS stakes? If you actually treat them like disposable stakes , then why not just make two new drivers that fit a different sized pipe?

Pipe is sized by id diameter tell you get up to 12 inch pipe. Then 12 inch and larger, they switch to the od diameter. The thickness of the pipe is called scheduling. On 12 inch and less pipe the scheduling increases the od of pipe. On 12 inch and more pipe scheduling decreases the id of pipe. Schedule 40 pipe is pretty common and that what must people purchase. Take a look in the yellow page for steel yards or something like that. What part of the state do you live? Most steel dealer will make you purchase a full stick 21 feet. Check out a local welding shop. They maybe able to get you what you want.
