On my second set, I pulled to set the cable stake, and the cable came out of the ferrule. Took an MB550 right to the face. Cut me in a couple spots and put a tooth through my lip. Mouth full of blood for a few hours. Got 1/2 of my 40 sets in and called it quits for the day. Finish up tomorrow. I did get some nice looking sets in though. Looking forward to the morning. Love Advil! Dear Wolfang anchor makers....Squeeze down a bit tighter with the crimper next time.

Wow glad to hear your okay. I've got just about all of my traps out except a couple of dps for tomorrow. Not used to the pan tension on my new mb550s though they are awesome I managed to get bit twice. Learning curve I guess. Feel better!

Ouch! Q. Do you know what the good thing is about that? A. It wasn't me! LOL Hope all is well, and your lip isn't too fat. I got about a dozen and a half coon sets made, and about that many dirt holes for canines, and a dozen of Zaggers Pipe Dreams in to boot. Then my back was telling me I had done way too much. Luckily I have meds. for that. I'll have to set a few more each day this week. Looking forward to the mornings check! Good luck everyone.

Switched to chain for the same reason. Hope the fat lip feels better in the morning.

I'll never go back to chains and stakes. Caught a fox in that set this morning, so it was worth the beating!
