Mouse Trap Car Competiton

The intent of this Project is to challenge our knowledge on both design and build aspects.We are tasked to build a mouse trap car with given materials to be judged on the following aspects: Longest Distance, Fastest Travel, Mechanical Ingenuity, Best Design. The only materials available are mousetraps, plywood, dowels, bearings, and strings. It was encouraged to use a 3D printer to make additional parts such as bearings and hubs. We are also encouraged to try newly bought laser cutters to make our design more intricate and complex.
