Mark Fuller sent us this video demonstration of human mousetrap 3D printer. Love this simple power of gravity design. Mark says that made the trap with the help of the Rapid Prototyping class at the University of Pennsylvania Technology (www.pct.edu). The device was printed on the uPrint dimension, a little less than six hours.
