A half-pint jar has a lid about 2.8 in (7.1 cm) wide, the perfect size for your trap. Turn the metal ring on top of the jar counterclockwise by hand to free the lid. The lid is the flat piece of metal inside the ring. Pick up the lid and set it aside. If you don’t want to use a breakable jar, get a few plastic soda bottles instead. Try cutting open one bottle and stapling the bottom half to the trap. Fit a second bottle half over it to hold the bees. Use a ruler to measure the lid’s diameter. Find where the center is and mark it. Then, calculate the halfway points between the center and the rim of the lid. Mark these spots as well.  Make sure you measure across the center of the lid. Hold the ruler very still until you’re done so the spots are properly aligned. The center marking will be an opening for the bees to crawl through. The other spots are there to secure the lid to the trap. Set the lid on top of a piece of scrap wood. Then, position a metal punch over one of the marks. Hammer the opposite end of the punch until it breaks through the lid. Repeat this with the other marks you made.. The punch can damage any surface underneath it. Work over something you don’t plan on keeping, such as a piece of scrap wood. This time you’re going to need to drill through a harder material, so make sure you’re using a heavy-duty bit designed to cut through metal. Drill down through the center hole to widen it. Keep widening it until it matches the tunnel hole you made on the bottom of the wood post.  Be careful not to damage anything underneath the thin lid. Hold it down firmly against a piece of scrap wood that the drill bit can pass through without issue. Throw away the scrap wood when you’re done. If you use the wrong drill bit, it could burn out your drill as well as ruin the lid, so choose carefully. Place the lid back inside the Mason jar’s ring. Then, position the ring over the hole on the bottom edge of the wood post. Fit a pair of 1⁄2 in (1.3 cm) wood screws into the smaller holes you punched through the lid. Finish securing the lid by using a screwdriver to turn the screws clockwise. Screw the holes straight into the wood so they don’t end up crossing into the bee tunnel. Then, make sure the lid is securely in place before attempting to position a Mason jar on it. You will need a wood drill bit approximately 1⁄8 in (0.32 cm) in size. Flip the trap over so the Mason jar side is facedown. Position your drill bit along the center of the trap, then drill down into it. This hole only needs to be short so it doesn’t reach the bee tunnels you made earlier.  The length of the hole depends on the length of the eye screw you plan on using. It needs to be the same length as the screw. Normally, it will be 2 in (5.1 cm) or less. If you made your bee trap differently, be careful not to drill all the way through the wood. For instance, if you made a box using flat boards, don’t let the drill pierce through the top of the trap. Use a screw the same length as the hole you made. Set the screw end in the hole, then turn it clockwise until it feels tight and sturdy. You can then hang the trap by threading a rope or a hanging hook through the screw’s eye. Find space for the trap near your deck or other spots carpenter bees tend to invade.  Hang the trap near where you notice bees or near spots you think they might visit. With a screw hook, you can hang up a trap just about anywhere. If you’re not planning on hanging the trap, set it up on a stable surface near where the bees gather. Put it up high, such as on a table or railing. After hanging up the trap, move the Mason jar toward the lid. It should fit into the ring holding the lid in place. Turn the jar counterclockwise until it hangs in place. When the jar fills with bees, you can unscrew it again to clean it out. The jar is where the bees go when they want to leave. The light attracts them there. It works the same way whether you use a jar, plastic bottles, or another clear material.

Widen the center hole using a 1⁄2 in (1.3 cm) metal drill bit. Screw the lid to the underside of the trap. Make a pilot hole through the trap’s top if you plan on hanging it. Twist an eye screw into the hole to hang the trap. Fit the Mason Jar onto the lid to complete the trap.

Article: As soon as you see the ball come off the glass or the rim of the basket, spring up with your arms outstretched. You want to grab the ball as quickly as you can to secure a rebound.  Be aggressive in moving towards the ball. If you are afraid to jump because someone else is jumping as well, you will have a lesser chance of getting the rebound. Even if another player is going for the ball, take the risk and jump. You may be the first one to get the rebound. Keep your arms stretched toward the ball as you jump. Keep your eye on the ball, following its movements so you can best aim your grasp. Always try to grab the ball with both hands. Rebounding with one hand will give your opponents an opportunity to swat the ball away easily and take possession for themselves.  Hug the ball to your body as you come down. This protects the ball from being intercepted from other players as you come down from your jump. Extend your elbows outward in a defensive position. This also discourages other players from grabbing the ball from your arms. As you reach the ground, pull the ball up to your chin. This prepares you to pass the ball to a teammate. As soon as you grasp the ball, scan the court. Look for an open teammate moving down court to pass the ball. Give a quick pass out to send the ball towards your basket.  If you got an offensive rebound, try to put the ball back up for a basket. If you don’t have an open shot, pass or dribble the ball out to get a better position on the net. If you're rebounding your own shot, try to immediately throw the ball towards the basket again if you have an open shot.
