    Hi Guys,I was wondering could someone recommend a good quality pigeon magnet that i could preferably put decoy birds aswell as birds that were shot on the arms. Some magnets i ve seen are flimsy looking. I don,t mind paying the bit extra for something that lasts!!! Thanks any posts are welcome!!

    i have one for years bloody brill get one that has a bit of box iron on it so its nice and strong especially the spike that goes into the ground as some times the grounds are very hard

    if you are going this route and have access to a scrap car,grab the heater fan switch as well so you can control the speed of the rotar arms

    I seen a video on youtube of making one, seemed straightforward enough!

    I got good plans off Dupont. They reckon if ya use a electric window motor you can use a small moped type battery and It'll be lighter cheaper spin for 6 hr

    johngalway gave me plans a while back if ya need them let me no
    i heard the electric window motor is a better job than the window wiper
