This LEGO mousetrap by Jason Allemann is pure, classic simplicity made of bricks. Created with LEGO technic, the trap measures 30 x 16 x 24 studs, and captured two mice that had decided to live in his home (one in the picture above.) The mechanism itself is quite simple:

Maker Faire: Life-Size Mouse Trap Game
I'm not sure what the recent trend is, but everyone seems to be life-sizing my childhood. Remember the game Mousetrap? Yes, the game that was fun for 30 seconds, and not worth the effort and time it took to set it up. Someone has created a life-size replicate of the Mousetrap Rube Goldberg machine. Rather than dropping the cage on the mouse and cheese, like in the original, this monstrous version will drop a safe on any object of your choosing (to crush and destroy). It will be on display at the Maker Faire next month. More »

One thing that has yet to be tech'd out, until now, is the mousetrap. Sure, you can use the age old wooden trap that snaps the mouse in half, but that is a little too inhumane.
High-Tech Mousetrap Uses Infrared Sensors, Bucket
One thing that has yet to be tech'd out, until now, is the mousetrap. Sure, you can use the age old wooden trap that snaps the mouse in half, but that is a little too inhumane.
This project captures a mouse by having a solenoid (electromagnet) drop a bucket over the mouse. The bucket is triggered by the mouse interrupting one of the infrared emitter/detector pairs around the bait. The enclosure that holds the electronics is mounted directly over the bait. Ok, so the "bucket" is actually a semi-clear storage container. The clear container allows a person to see if a mouse was trapped when the container dropped.Yeah, that is pretty awesome. Now I just need to create a bigger version to trap the ladies. (Just kidding, ladies, I'm not a creep, that's Jason's role.) More »
