Small tip for snare builders - rolling tags

I posted this awhile back but the recent pruning got rid of it so here it is in case anyone is building snares preseason...

Nice, great idea, thanks for sharing that

Excellent Idea Jayme. No more sore fingers for me!!!

Slick

Great idea since my "preseason" snare building usually starts 3 days before I want to set.

Great tip, ADC. Thanks!

Its all about the slot ... So simple, great tip ADC.

Thanks guys!

Since of course I lost this one, lol, the new one I made was from an old screwdriver, slightly smaller diameter. Cut the groove with a over sized cutting wheel on a rotary tool like a big Dremel tool. I think it works even better than the original.

Rolled this way the tags make a pretty good wammy (support collar) in a pinch too.

~ADC~

Made one today, just in time for 100 trap tags to arrive today. Works great! Thanks for the tip!
They hold pretty solid as a wammy too!

TTT - for Les

Thanks Jaime !

sweet!

Hadn't seen that before Thanks! You DO have some goodies, Jayme. You need to start a youtube channel just for your tips!

Super cool

Excellent idea Jayme, thanks for sharing.

Thanks guys. Glad to help where I can.

That looks like the hot set up

Great Idea. I don't build my own CRs but I do build my own earth anchors and all my tags are attached to my anchors not the CR. So this will work great for that application.

Thanks. Very good

So those old screw drivers with the slot that went into the plastic handle that held (what you did not need but always needed) would do the same. In the drill chuck.

Good thread

Thanks for sharing. Coons and otters have been rough on trap tags hanging down. This will fix alot of it.

I’ve been using this system for my snare whammies since ADC posted it originally. However I used an old hinge part and one of those twirly screwdrivers I had that had a broken tip. Also if you are buying premade snares, don’t fret you can still manage to use this setup. The slot does not go all the way through. I hope the photos load. I have never thanked ADC formally for putting me onto this and making life a bit easier on the snare line, so thanks a bunch! It has saved time and parts.

Well done. I like that system for attaching tags to already made snares. It just seems a bit more finger friendly then the drill thing. LOL

But I like rubber gas line hose for my whammies. Just slit It and push It over the cable.
