As you can see in my video, the trigger parts are flung neatly out in front of the deadfall, and the upright was out from under the weight (thanks to about an inch and a half of extra length on the trigger stick), so the only thing remaining under the weight is the real trigger and your new dinner (which in my case was a stick.) Very handy, so nothing blocks the space underneath.Company Showcases Seven Custom Vehicles Celebrating Heritage, Performance and a Go Anywhere Brand Promise It took me at least 20 tries before I got it right- that included hand smashings. Just keep one side at least partly open to let your prey in. It can be kinda hard to balance it, and you may need to pound a row of sticks in on either side to guide its fall. The weight can be anything from a rock to a log. The real trigger is where you put the bait (peanut butter is the best). Once the short stick is wrapped once around the support stick, you hold it in place with the real trigger stick-a long stick to be put against the short stick to hold it in place. Tie the end of the rope to the smaller stick, and experiment to get it to look kind of like in the picture. Carve a notch around the shorter stick right in the middle, just like the one in the bottom of the trigger stick. Cut a smaller stick, about the same thickness as the trigger stick, but much shorter, maybe two and a half or three inches. Remember that you can always cut some off, but you can't put more on. I doubled the cord, and that was surprisingly perfect.
The internet is a great resource! To measure how much you'll need, take the string around the support stick, and cut more than you think you need.
I used the bowline knot, sorry about not providing pictures. Tie your rope/cord around the stick using a knot of your choice.
Now carve a notch all the way around the bottom point of the stick, about a quarter to a half of an inch from the bottom, and not as deep as the notch that was made previously, and wide enough to hold whatever string you have.
