better mousetrap

consists of a 5 gal pail and a cement plug. Im not sure the proper mix to get the cement plug out of the pail yet so it might need use 2 pails one for the mould and cut for removal.

optical sensor for the door to close the door after mouse enters. either use another servo to make the plug fall or do the squishing manually. catching them live in other traps then using this method to squish them would work good too.

models posted , unprinted but should work.
