Hey Man I really like the trap. Its definately has the look of both movie and cartoon. Very well done. I would change 1 lil thing if it was mine and its the handle. You see it sticking out but not up. Ok that didnt sound right and I wont go there again :lol: . But really really nice.

lmao i know it want to change the handle, but as it is it is coonect to the trap in 2 places on the rear box, which is plastic. im afraid if i raise the handle, then only one point of attachment will have to hold all the weight and it will either break off on me or warp the plastic. i gotta get around to putting wheels on that thing tho.

Hey Ecto I take that comment back about changing the handle. You made a unique trap so I say leave it. The trap is different and I like it the way it is.

i dunno it would be nice to have the raised handel simply cuz when its on my belt the handle as it is dont leave much room to wrap the cord around.

im trying to think of ways to rig wheels on this thing, as i dont have access to anything more than a drill. so cutting out slots for wheels is a no go. any ideas?
