Andrew Brassard built the “Rat Maze” for the Milton Fire Department. We featured one Goshen Township Fire & EMS built in the Lifting Maze – DIY Rescue Drill Prop post. But what happened when he sent a few pictures out? Cincinnati Heavy Rescue 9 made one out of wood and was designed to hold several bags of absorball to give it some good weight to move. Make sure you also checkout the post that Spartan Rescue Inc put together. The post is a photo gallery of all 3 different props.
