X2 - I had a guy call me a couple days ago trying to reach him. Wish I could help, but I haven't talked with him in years.

I don't know if he has patents or jigs and supplies for making them, but I bet he could sell them for a goodly amount of money to someone who could keep up with the market demand for them. Hopefully some go getter hard working guy will contact him with an offer he can't refuse. Every big trap supply place should want them in their inventory. I'd hate to see someone steal his idea like has happened in the past when an individual can't keep up with demand. They are a great product.

Maybe any member living within reasonable driving distance should make a house call and find out.

Looks like nothing since September of 2023 ... any news on if he's still making one-handed setters? I've emailed and called - no success.

I haven’t seen Dave out and about in several years and haven’t seen his son either. Not sure how he’s doing with his back problems. I will try and reach out to see if anyone knows what his plans are. I will post it if I find out anything.
