Posted By: wabigoon A pattern for a bear trap? - 08/11/22
I'm not after a real bear, I'd just like a bear trap. Any ideas on where to find a pattern?

i bought a Duke for a display at a mountain house in AZ. big sucker.
Thanks Stalker, I just want to rig up a fake for "display". laugh
if it wasn't so far down to the AZ house i'd take measurements and draw you a blueprint of the one there. if i remember its about 38 inches with the springs out straight. set it once. had to use 2x4's fulcrumed to depress the springs!
snapped a 2x4 in half when we set it off.

The picture of the #15 i posted is on 12” tile if that helps
Lots of replicas for sale online.
Van Dyke taxidermy has a nice one @ $335.
Is the one at vandyke the larger Duke?
As posted ^ ^ ^
The trapping supply places all sell
functional double long spring b traps
I have an impulse to buy one of those; but don't even have a good place to hang it at the moment.
