RE: homemade security box
Thanks for the input pastorjim,
Any suggestions on what to use in lieu of the foam. I did think about the foam drawing and holding moisture but didn't think it would be a huge problem. Where I am we get about 14" of rain/year so it doesn't have a lot of chance to get wet but I have a couple extra pieces of foam to replace the one in the box that I take out with me when I check the cam if it has rained since the last time I checked it. If I can find a 30 cal box, it will be much more low profile to the tree and I would be able to shim it with a small piece of wood.
The one mod I for sure need to make, besides camo painting it, is to make the bottom bolt hole slotted in an arc so that I can level the cameral a lot easier. It is kind of hard to get one bolt exactly on top of another when you are screwing them into a tree.
