nice traps

Nice. How are you cleaning them?

A brass bristled brush to knock the heavy rust and crud off, then brushed again in warm water to get the rust dust off and a good coating of WD-40 with a toothbrush.

Nice looking set of traps

Nice old traps. Are those new additions to your collection?

They were new at the time. I’ve added several more just haven’t had the time to clean them up yet. I will post them as soon as my work schedule slows down a little.
