  • How to Build a Hog Trap Out Of Sawmill Slabs!
    Y’all have been asking me what I do with the slabs left over from cutting logs on the sawmill. Well, you can do anything with them! This time, I decided to build a hog trap out of them! It won’t last forever of course because eventually the slabs will rot, but it’s better than letting them go to waste. Plus, it’s a cheap way to catch some hogs!
    Preciate Y’all!

    How bout some Jeff Barron merch, maybe a t shirt that says preciate y'all on the back. I'd wear one !

    The Barron family (Hannah and Jeff) are without a doubt some of the nicest people on my RUclips channels. I look forward to watching them everytime they post. Honestly if Hannah and Jeff sat on Hannah's porch and just visited and filmed it I would be happy. Our country needs more like them.

    Another great idea for those slabs instead of rotting away. Nice hog trap. Used to make chicken coops out of them too with the same sliding door scheme to keep them locked in at night. Also used to make and sell yard and camp chairs or furniture out of them. Easy chairs fit to size was easy. Cut a rectangle horizontally at the thick end centered, and a male-like insert from another slab to make the seat part that just slips in the hole and can be easily taken apart too. The wider the bottom slab foot is less wobble for the old folks to deal with. Nice high back chairs to sit in. There's a ton of things they can be used for. Now ya just gotta get Hannah to find that slab and board stretcher for you. Chuckle. TY you for taking the time and effort to make these videos for us all out here. This old man really enjoys them all.

    Jeff I really like the creativity of re-purposing things. I have a neighbor that fenced his yard with the slabs left from sawing used telephone poles. He saws up the used poles into lumber and sells it as treated lumber. Great idea i think. Also a great way to get rid of things like used cross ties and used light poles besides burning them. Have you already jumped to 23,000 subscribers ? If so this looks like a real winner for you. Thanks for your time. And remember to talk to the camera. LOL

    Jeff that pile of pine slabs looks like a gold mine of camping camp fire wood. Guess it'd all depend on if there was a willing campground around y'all and how much it'd cost you in time to cut and bundle to make it worth your time. My minds spinning ideas on how to build a machine that'll automatically cut a stack of slabs into 18" pieces and then bundle them into 10 or 12 piece bundles to roast dogs or make Smores over!!! :-)

    Best of luck on catchin' them hogs. I found Hannah's site recently and started following her then, when she put your site up I subscribed to it. You know, as a country boy who moved to the City many years ago, I'd forgotten some of the many life experiences I had growing up as a kid, on the farm in the Ozark Mountains. You and Hannah have brought back many of these memories. Now, I'm an old man and physically can't do much of what you're doing today but I want to thank you both for working hard to bring folks a little taste of a life, for me anyway, that I truly miss. I wish I lived in a "little house" back in the woods on your property somewhere. You wouldn't have to worry about making those late night phone calls to set them hog traps. You and Hannah could sleep the night away. I would take the Night Shift for you. Stay Safe, Stay Well.

I really miss my boat on the river... like I could get in one now without having Hannah pitch me into one. LOL Have a great day out there.

I love your channel. You are getting more confident in each new video. You are not afraid of work. We can all see you know what you're doing.
    Is a larger hog capable of breaking your slab boards at their thinnest part part? Keep up with more great videos, Jeff.

    You building it to keep them in or Out? Just my experience but when Dad and I build a hog fence the Boards or Panels were on the inside of the post so the boards or panels were pushed against the post and not against the screws. Hogs are strong and would push the screws right out of the post or split the boards on the out side of the post. Also the bark on the inside of the pen would be less scary to the Hawgs. But BUDDY that WORKED. All that matters Jeff. Keep up the Awesome videos. Thanks for all your Info and content

    some folks might wonder why there are so many feral hogs now, several years ago the hog prices went down so low that the pig farmers couldn't even make enough money to feed the hogs, so rather than let them starve to death, they just turned them loose and now they are pretty much everywhere, they do quite a bit of damage here in my area in MO.
