alright how you guys doing a day in a process of making that primitive container I actually got really really sick and so we're actually actually you can hear excuse me excuse me actually really got a really bad cold in fact pretty much the whole house has it and but so we're we're inside the home right now and we'll just continue on a little primitive trapping video and get that on YouTube for you guys and you know tell you guys that a that primitive container videos coming up soon as I get better so we're gonna do this it's a little bird trap a little trick I like to use we've always do is we start out with two sticks and bank line tied in between them to you can use whatever you want you know a jute or natural natural cordage even paracord doesn't matter whatever will work then varying sizes of sticks run the gamut from pretty long too pretty short and I'm gonna give the camera to my son he's going to play cameraman and i'll show you how to put this together don't go away all right now what you start out with is the square once you got that what we do is just turn it on itself and make an X okay and then we can lay that flat and then we're starting with our longest sticks over here you grab to the longest ones and start running them into our X and things are going to be really loose for a little while but we'll just try to keep them keep it as tight as possible little cumbersome right now but trust me this thing is going to really tighten up on you and we'll start taking shade and then run one into the other side here and then just uh when playing with weaken laws in here and kill you know just put one on the other side and adjust everything down this one up I mean I really quite honestly I would make a lot it's culturally kicking up but that's why I've been outside for a while continue that other video and so we're going to go ahead and cut and I'm going to go to build this up and then come back to you just in the court time for strange reasons so what time if I come back to you this will be built up and i'll show you how to finish it off alright so this is where right now got it built up a little bit as you can see these are getting started getting tightened up so we're just going to continue on with i put our sticks in and you put one in three of them move you just going to keep continuously adjusting and tightening then if you get a stick that house bend in it like this you got a position that bend correctly so you don't have a hole in your trap but something just fly out of so just continue to tighten everything up and keep putting sticks in somebody's actually too hard just you got to continue to adjust everything you'll have a stick break on you too it's no big deal so there you can see we got a bit of a pending a nice dick at the position that correctly as you can hear everybody now houses cut this cold it's been a miserable last couple days that sounds like tight boy marries else so we're kind of getting near the top and maybe good and finish it off now but I think we could go a little bit higher with it so let's put enough another couple runs on it and then we'll go ahead to the top of it you see this really good night now all right I think that's as far as I'm gonna go ahead and finish it out so how you finish it out is you just keep with this runs going in this direction you just continue putting in sticks in that direction just kind of putting a roof on it so nothing could fly out of it like I said this is a pretty small right if I was actually trying to trap something I would make this definitely a lot bigger there's actually a couple holes that I'm not happy with but i just wanted to do this video one cuz i'm in the house being bored and to want to keep you guys a good idea of how to build one of these that's not the curry is there it'll work okay so there you go you can see that will put it up on here put it up on like a figure four kind of Deadpool and put bait in the packet right here or you put a v-trigger deadfall formation and what it falls you obviously have anything trap so having holes in this like you can see if there's big enough holes in it you definitely take care of those couldn't look around trap make sure you don't have any really big holes get them all fixed up and then there you go you got a cage trap thank you
