I saw a mouse trap on YouTube (Shawn Woods' Mousetrap Monday). It was all in plastic and it seemed to work pretty well.

I saw a mouse trap on YouTube (Shawn Woods' Mousetrap Monday). It was all in plastic and it seemed to work pretty well. I decided to put my design skills to work to see if I could make something similar.
In this version I have not yet solved the ramp mount. I'm planning for that to be a different part. The platform is large enough already.
Print instructions
In this version I opted to press in little 1/4" posts rather than printing them. This approach offers a very smooth surface for the table to turn on. I'll probably post a version with printed posts as well.
This was designed for a snug fit on a 'standard' 5 gallon pail from Home Depot.
The model was created in imperial units on Fusion 360. If you are slicing with PrusaSlicer you will need to set the scale to 2540% for each of X, Y and Z.
