Question for Jack Traps Owners
« on: Feb 20, 2005, 05:28 PM »
I look to the owners for a little help in some measurments and info regarding your traps, I happen to have some real nice Mahogany wood lying around and thought I'd make some tip-ups of my own. Before I go slicing and dicing this beautiful piece of timber I'd like to grab a lil info from you all. Please. I know the cost of building the traps w/ Jacks parts will cost me more than if I bought them myself,but knowing these were crafted from my own hands kind of adds a little personal touch. And I'm going to take pics as I go.
 My biggest question is wood thickness and lenght on all three pieces, I plan to remake the 26" Cross Jack Trap. Hole measurments from end to would help as well. I ask you Please for your help.
Thank You

I called Tim Jackson and he gave me all the info I needed....The mahogany will be a nice touch to these tilts. Thank You

Not yet my brother......I finially made a decission on what to coat the wood with and it'll take a little while longer to complete them.....We may be selling the house so I dont want em hanging and have some one pokin round. But im going to purchase a System Three Clear Coat Epoxy for them.
