About this model

Humane mouse trap for PET bottle based on EL GATO design. Works best with 1.5L bottles. The cap made replaceable as mice chew on them pretty hard trying to escape, it should be printed solid, otherwise mice tear it apart quite easily. Main part and the ball can be printed with 10-20% infill. Included ball split in halves to be glued together, this way it's much easier to print perfectly round without overhangs or supports. If you would like to tweak it, OpenSCAD source included, dependencies listed in comments.
