    Default Latest homemade digitals - what do you think?

    Trail cams


    The first one with the d-380, I built for a friend. Cost about $140-$150.
    The second one with the p41 I built for myself for about $260.
    These cam's camo look a lot better than my first one I built. The first one I just put camo duct tape on and now it's tearing off. On these I put caulk over the case and made grooves that look like tree bark and used green, olive and brown camo spray paint to match the color of a tree.


    Oh yeah, they're both working great, I helped my friend set up his and took a few test pictures. And I set up mine a week or so ago and will post some of the pictures I got.

    Nice job. If I had the time I'd like to try making one myself.

    Looks great Bond! I am putting the finishing touches on my first homemade cam. Should have it done tomorrow or Wednesday and in the woods by the weekend!

    Nice work... I'm still working on my next three setups with the BG1/p41. Hopefully I can get some time to finish them up this week... I'm thinking about using the SS board on my next couple setups.

    Nice job Bond. I just finished my 4th one. It is a P-41 with the BG1 board. I just got some pics of a few good bucks with it on Saturday. I have some pics of them on my webshots page under 2005 gamecam pics. I also have pics on my cameras also. What is your next one going to be? IR or Video? I know you cant stop there.

    Yeah I WANT to build another one. I've always wanted to try an IR Or I might try the new S40. But I'm not building any more for a while because I didn't have enough money for my last one. I'm trying to save up for new wheels/tires for my jeep so it doesn't look so much like a minivan but keep getting caught up with hunting stuff that I "need."
