⇛ CARMTS - Mouse Trap - Rubber Band Car Kit
A Mousetrap Car is a unique vehicle that uses a mousetrap as its motor and a string to transmit force. This fascinating method involves attaching one end of a string to the arm of the mousetrap and winding the other end around an axle. By winding the string around the axle, the mousetrap's spring is stretched, and energy is stored. As the mousetrap car is released, the mousetrap pulls the string off of the axle, causing the wheels to turn and the vehicle to move forward.
All wooden parts of the Mousetrap Car are pre-cut and ready for use, making it easy to assemble. The kit includes printed and online instructions, but you will need wood glue, sandpaper, latex paint, and small brushes to complete and decorate your Mousetrap Car. This innovative vehicle is a fun and educational way to learn about physics and mechanics.
