If you do want to survive, you probably SHOULD listen to me! Or maybe not.

As a born and raised resident of a big city, I've long appreciated the sounds of a farm. Seems like a small thing probably but for whatever reason I've long had a deep appreciation for rural life and farms. -

You ain't seen nuthin' yet. 2023 is going to be mind blowing.

I've recently started working with hardware cloth. Love the stuff. :) Thanks for the tips!

Good advise. Thank you for sharing. You could spray the seam with some Rustoleum spray paint and that would prevent rust for a while.

I've seen crayfish traps made with the 1/2 inch cloth. It's basically just a small rectangle box with a ramp door. I've never made one, but I have made a few minnow traps from 2 liter soda bottles. Thanks for showing the pliers and clips. I've never seen those before.

Great info gonna get me some to keep at the retreat. Blessings!

More great tips! Thanks SNC!

This is exactly what I wanted to know. I’m getting ready to build a chicken run.

Super Duper! Thanks for this video. Learned a lot !!!

I like your attitude towards how simple this sort of thing really is.

@mamaj1013 I don't know. I just looked up rabbit wire on google images, and they show hardware cloth and poultry netting. I've never heard either one of them called rabbit wire.

@SassafrasHomestead The best thing about crawfish and perch traps is that on a bad day you walk to the water check your trap and find nothing in it. On a bad day of fishing you sit there all day loosing bait. What is really cool is that with fish traps I really don't thing that you have any days like that.

@johnny102marvin I'll put that on my list, but you will have to be patient. Real Patient.

Can you attach hardware cloth to PVC pipe?? I assume zip ties is the best way to do that (luckily it’s a short term need so don’t need the zip ties to last forever). I’m making an enclosure out of PVC pipe to protect my container garden from pests.

I have outdoor enclosures made with PVC, chicken wire, and hardware cloth that are held together with zip ties. They are all over ten years old and still holding up.

I feel like this is a dumb question but here goes…when you say standard staples, are you referring to fence staples or could I use a staple gun? Thanks!

I was talking about standard fence staples. But, if you have a really good stapler, it might work. I don't think that mine would have done it, but all I have is a cheap $5 stapler.

You'll have to show how you make a fish trap sometime. :-)

I'll make a video of my Larsen trap this afternoon for you to see. I'v almost finished it.

Where did they come up with name hardware cloth? It is wire right? And the term "chicken tractor" where did that come from? Because it's moveable?

Amen on the chicken wire it ain’t worth a cuss I use hardware cloth even if it is like wrestling a bear to get it off the roll and on the cage…

@HalfQ If you actually do, please post it as a video response to this video.

They are EMT scissors used to cut jeans and any other clothing off in medical emergency. Good ones are like 50 or 100 bucks. He said Harbor Freight has um cheap. Can normally cut pennies in half.

Thanks! THis is really helpful, we are wrapping the hardware cloth around a cage that has gaps too wide for our pet rats and I think this coveres everything to attach it to the rectangle shape.

Camera man getting me dizzy!!!

waste of time using that cameraman with the shakes. really !!!

Tried to watch, camera work spoiled it.

I get what you’re doing, but the camera movement made me sick.

1. Why does the camera person aim the camera above the screen you are supposed to be showing, so that it is outside the frame? 2. Why do you say both should look like this (showing both with spikes coming out the ends) and then cut spikes off one? 3. It would help if you don't hold two pieces together (1:33) to show the one you just cut. Do people ever review what they shot and ask how can I improve this and do it over? Apparently not.
