[QUOTE="Clean Harry, post: 956289, member: 5650"] A figure 6 trap looks like a figure 6 from the top. You must build it very sturdy, and high even with a top maybe - so the pigs won't jump out. You rig the intersection of the circle and straight part of the 6 with just enough space for a pig to squeeze through, but narrow enough that he can't squeeze out. You use rebar or sucker rod for that part and sharpen the ends so it will catch the pigs skin and won't let him get out. Going in it will flex enough for him to squeeze in, but won't let him out. I've seen some of these 10 or 12 feet in diameter and catch 10 pigs at a time. It's a riot though when you walk up to the trap and they see you coming. I have a neighbor that has one of these and has even rigged up a loading chute on one side. he has a guy that buys them. [/QUOTE]
