I bought some wire screen from ogormans.
Any tips for using it? I use mostly coil springs.

just cut a notch in it for the dog to go threw and use it

Make sure not to leave a "bubble" in the screen over the pan and put the edges under the jaws not over them.JMO

takes some time to get used to....but you will like the results!!

i think i cut mine a little big. Ill need to adjust that some. Ill have it flat on the pan, but when i bed the trap it seems to bubble.

Danny when you start to bed your trap and you have it mashed into the bed grab the screen in 2 opposing places where it sticks out past the jaws and pull it tight. A lot of times you can "stretch a lot of the bubble out of them.
All I ever used was just plain old metal window screen wire.

Someone had a good post awhile back on wire screen and how to use it properly,they had some good pics but I can't remember who it was or if it was in general or trapping only forum?Maybe the individual will see this and post a link or pics again.

I remember seeing that, but couldnt find it. Hopefully they will.

Interesting stuff. This thread wasn't archived but has some good info. Hope this helps.
