The Random Crap Thread

Re: Random Crap III - As Authorised By The Man

Okay, I've just made a mouse trap. "The cheese is in place". I repeat "the cheese is in place" I'll report back with results. It is a real technical construction made up of a stick, a baking tray and a piece of crumbly Lancashire cheese. The intruder was spotted at 3 am last night, thus interupting my late night Men and Motors shuffle. Payback will be oh so, sweet.

A picture would add so much to it.

I think you should rotate the trap 180°. Why? Well, the mouse will always pull the cheese towards the hole, right? It may grab the cheese, run towards the hole and will pull the stick when it's already past the trap border. That's only if I understood the secretly hidden part of the trap with the stick, that is.

After reading again, is there no string involved?
 
Re: Random Crap III - As Authorised By The Man

No, no, no, you don't understand Ike, the trap is flawless. It's propped up by a skewer which is snapped and taped together at 90 degrees. So the little bastard will have to pull the cheese towards the sealed end, causing the mechinism to go off. It took me hours trying to balance it.
 
Re: Random Crap III - As Authorised By The Man

Oh. Ah.

You're right, I don't understand. So the cheese is attached to the stick directly?

Also, what will you do when you have it?
 
Re: Random Crap III - As Authorised By The Man

Yes the cheese is attached directly. I'm not sure what I will do with it yet, probably let it go. I'm open to suggestions.
 
Re: Random Crap III - As Authorised By The Man

Yes, I may also set up Mousecam 1. Hold tight, i'll keep you updated through the night.

*Edit* I don't want to kill it, we have grown quite close. It's just cultural differences... He enjoys shitting on my floor. Where as I generally use the toilet.

Nice interlude, now where's that damn mouse.
 
Re: Random Crap III - As Authorised By The Man

No sign of the damn mouse yet Ike. I've now constructed four mouse traps and it's just a matter of time.

Sorry to do a rewind here, but a picture of what? The 'mouse trap' or the 'men and motors shuffle' ( :lol: nice one that).

I now have an image of a Clockwork Orange guy sitting on the toilet with Men and Motors in my mind, thank you. Where did the mouse trap image go danwin?

I'm kinda disappointed you know. :|
 
Re: Random Crap III - As Authorised By The Man

Sorry Ike, I've had no success with my traps yet, but I have him stuck under my floor. I'm not sure what to do now.
