I had to do that for my physics class. I was wondering if anyone else had to. I'm not very good with building things, so it was tough. |

I went to this website http://users.bigpond.net.au/mechtoys/mouse.html It wasn't exactly like it, but I pretty much followed that. Some can be really simple and others can be quite extravagent. All you basically have to do is take a mouse trap, attach axles and wheels, and attach a string to the catch around the axle. Then you wind it up and hopefully it will go. |

| I did it once in my high school physics class and then again in my entry level engineering class in college. Strangely enough my HS one was better, probably due to less restrictions. |

I made a can-of-bug-spray-wheels before. i got a can of Raid, and put it on a piece of cardboard, and I added wheels, and got an engine and batteries to run it. It took a long time to find the tape though ☻ |
