New Mouse Trap Design

(1/7) > >>

Flyin6:
I didn't say, "A better mousetrap, just a different one

Starts with two standard 5 gal buckets

Flyin6:
And a piece of 1/4" steel to act as an axle

Flyin6:
I drilled holes just above the handle holes

Flyin6:
Then cut two sections of conduit PVC tubing that spanned the space minus about 1/4" and drilled a hole in the center of that

Flyin6:
Then comes two more holes about 1/2"-3/4" outboard from the center hole.

Through those holes, I placed two 5/16" bolts capped with nyloc nuts and adjusted same until I was left with something that would return to "about-level" when disturbed.
