Fully functional Mouse House (mouse trap). Mouse Trap Front is printed in one step and includes a one way weighted pivoting gate.
To use, place cheese in 250ml can, then slide front of trap assembly onto can. Place trap in corner and wait!
Printed in PLA at 0.2mm layer, 20% infill, with supports and skirt.
Gate pivot points have support material within and will require you to swing gate a number of times to clear this material out.
Mouse trap back should be printed vertically.
I printed mouse trap front in horizontal position which resulted in less resolution of front of house detail. You may want to try and print this vertically also.
The back takes about 30 minutes to print whereas the front requires upwards of 7 hours.
