Hi cz,

I just checked out Ethan's design (I think it's the one you're reffering to) and it's not the same. From what I heard, his traps are excellent but this time we're going to have to make it a DIY experience due to the amount of traps we need and amount of cash we're willing to spend. (Ethan really helped us along the way as for what information he was able to give for our exact room specs - I commend him for that! Thank you E.W. very nice of you)

My dad and I thought of several different ways to do this and came out with the best one that we think will look great while maintaining a strong structure.

I'll post pics of every step of the process. We're still building the frames as we speak. I think by next weekend we'll have one completely finished. (hopefully! unforntunately we're both busy with our day jobs)

The wood is cut with a special blade that makes a groove (picture above) on the sheet which the other frame with the stretched fabric will sit inside of it. We're covering both sides of the traps as well.

As for the 703, I'll ask my dad where he got it. He bought 14 bags of 6 x 2X4X2"
