Ray Mears makes a dead-fall trigger in one of his episodes, and uses it within a split log which he places at shoulder height in the trees to catch red squirrels - I think it was the Rocky Mountain episode.
I have the video and freeze the frames at the right spot but can't figure out what appears to be a fairly simply mechanism - and haven't found anything published on this... Can anyone help me figure it out please? I want a diagram which I can use to reproduce his trigger.
Thanks in advance,
Mungo
