I caught a guy that had stolen 3 of ours off our farm trying to sell them in a pawn shop down the road from our house. I was looking at the chainsaws and overheard him say "some dumb a$$ left these out in the woods  do you buy stuff like this"  We'll my ears perked up and I slowly went around to take a peek.  The idiot had'nt even tried to get my name off them.  I told him they we're mine and he said "oh sorry I did'nt know"   I called the cops and had him arrested for trespassing and theft. Boy did his tune change when we went to court  I went from some dumda$$ to can we just be friends and forget about this ??   
I laughed at him, he got 150 hours community service.   I lucked out, hope you do also.
That homemade deal looks nice.

 Sorry about your cameras. >:( Would piss me off to no end too. Am new to using trail cams and only have one cheap version I recently put in a questionable place. :bdid: All these cameras being ripped off makes me wonder what a person can do to prevent it. Lousy design for sure. Shouldn't be able to open the housing and get to the 'guts'. Has anyone come up with a better burglar proof set up? Sucks having to do it but.. Market is there for crafty folks to come up with something. Metal housing and choker cable with a shocker attached may slow em down. Hate thieves, would make for good video seeing the crap zapped out of them trying to steal it though.
