    Shawn this is excellent content. It is fun to have a break from flawed modern inventions to see the history of humans trapping pests. You have a loyal viewer & subscriber who appreciates the effort and thorough investigation of your videos. It would be enjoyable to see a selection of your personal collection grouped near modern versions that are similar. If possible to see them in action side-by-side, if it would not damage your valuable ones. Also your build of the original trap is appreciated, and the natural delivery without editing your injury makes it real. Cheers

    Hi! I feel like you’ll never see this but taking a chance. There was an old killtrap video you made 3 years ago using a 3D printed walk the plank trap using a water bucket. I was wondering if you could potentially bring that trap back with the humane tank trap. I loved watching the mice interact and explore the tank and seeing how they behave when trapped in a space where they have their needs met. Its so cool watching how wild mice behave in comparison to pet mice bred in captivity.

    Fantastic video. With your growing collection of vintage traps and replicas, and wealth of knowledge, I would be very interested in seeing more videos of this nature. With so many unique trap designs, such as noose, dunking, crushing, live trapping, and so on, it'd be interesting to see the iteration of multiple trap types over the years.
