xwingyoda Posted November 7, 2007 Posted November 7, 2007 I intend to make my unoriginal entry tonight (I hesitate between 2 ideas now loool) and then I can focus on the other contest I look forward to: the sig fig house ;-) Night building On !! *yoda* Quote
gylman Posted November 7, 2007 Posted November 7, 2007 OK, fine, I just had a shitty idea. I'll put up something shitty tonight. It should take about 10 minutes.... if I could find 10 free minutes. As if. But I'll try. G Quote
xwingyoda Posted November 7, 2007 Posted November 7, 2007 OK, fine, I just had a shitty idea. I'll put up something shitty tonight. Did you read my mind or what :-P Ok so the design is set and now I am pretty screwd because I need to find a 1x1 red tile in one of my display models |-/ EDIT: finally found 1, and now my project's "architecture" is completed !! Let the rest continues :-P EDIT2: I am screwed because I lack 1 bloody part... lets try and find one :-P *yoda* Quote
gylman Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 Sinner, I love your creation! My hasty entry has been posted. It's ugly as sin, but it packs a hair trigger and a mighty "thwack". I have not yet tried it to see if it can kill anything, but it does leave a nice red mark on my daughter's finger (she "volunteered" to test it out). Quote

Siegfried Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 Sinner, I love your creation! ...and I love yours! :-D That is a great entry! I love the "cheese". :-P I wonder if it actually would work. Are you planning on trying it out? The question is; are mice smart enough to resist the urge to pull... 8-| Stunning photo by the way. (How many pictures did it take? X-D ) Quote
gylman Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 Took about 40 attempts. And as for Mr. Mouse..... a) he could not resist b) he was too slow Quote

gylman Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 From a practical point of view, I have no way of trying it out. No mice where I'm at. We apparently have the highest population density of racoons in North America, and I suppose I could supersize this and make a raccoon trap, but it's well known that no human device can defeat a racooon, and in any case some tree hugging raccoon lover would probably throw a brick through my front window if I tried. So, for now the application of this devices is pretty much confined to my children. I don't think my wife is stupid enough to fall for it, but maybe I'll try. First, I just realized we have some outstanding Italian cheese we got as a gift last week. The trap is baited. I'll leave it in the kitchen before going to work tomorrow. My wife usually is sleeping at that time, but she usually comes into the kitchen in a semi comatose state at around 7 am to get the kids stuff read for school, so she might just go for it. BWAHAHAHAHAHA Quote

Gylman, that is one awsomely diabolical mousetrap there! *y* *y* Oh, mines up too, that bad one...... :-( Batbrick-atleast-had-fun-making-that-awful-box Away! >:-) Quote
Siegfried Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 Oh, mines up too, that bad one...... :-( Batbrick-atleast-had-fun-making-that-awful-box Away! >:-) I actually like it. *sweet* The suck-up to EB for votes plan could be a winner! :-D (You have some nice rare window there! 8- Quote
Stauder Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 ACME model I MoustrapLoaded That yellow brick is supposed to be a chunk of cheese. Then, if you pull on it, the hair trigger is released, and then SWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSH! The blade slams down to crush a helpless mouse's head (or my daughter's finger if she tries to mess with my knife collection). Don't ask how many pictures I took to time it just right to get the trap in motion. It really slams quite hard and fast. I should note that it comes with some options, not shown in this picture. You can replace the blade with clubs, teeth, swords, or technic FLEX system cable if you want to mash, macerate, cut, or garotte the mouse to death, rather than slice him quickly and painlessly. Cool Man! can we have instructions? Pleas Gly? :'-) Quote

gylman Posted November 12, 2007 Posted November 12, 2007 Cool Man! can we have instructions? Pleas Gly? :'-) OK. I'll take apart the plates that hide the mechanism and post a picture. It's really quite straightforward, though. Truly no rocket science here. Quote
Siegfried Posted November 13, 2007 Posted November 13, 2007 Thanks! Which window is rare? Well, I probably should have said "rare for me". :-$ These ones... ...but they go for about $0.50 on BrickLink so they can't be that rare! :-P Quote
Batbrick Posted November 13, 2007 Posted November 13, 2007 :-P will post it tomorrow !! I still need to photoshoot that "baby" ;-) Cool box ;-) I thought you were suppose to enter a crap entry :-P However you should be chambered for mistreating that poor *yoda* in there >:-( :-D *yoda* ____________ Thanks! :-$ In my opinion it still is a bit crap, but am glad I jazzed it up so you forget the truly uninspired idea behind it (I mean seriously? A box for lego made out of lego? *wacko* ) And about you being in there.........he he :-$ ..........I just lost my PMing privileges didn't I? X-O ____________ Well, I probably should have said "rare for me". :-$ These ones... ...but they go for about $0.50 on BrickLink so they can't be that rare! :-P ____________ SNAP! |-/ I was hoping I could fetch a price for those one day, I have quite a few of 'em! But I guess I could still fetch a price off you! >:-) Oh, wait, you're the one who mentioned bricklink! Batbrick Away! >:-) Quote
