A mouse trap
4 eye hooks
6 balloons
2 bic pens (the smooth kind)
2 tops from pop cans (for the serious perhaps washers, or otherwise any other bendable metal)
some string (not pictured)
4 CDs/DVDs (expendable ones). Here 3 CDRs and a blank transparent thing from the top of a spindle. I hear DVDs are a bit lighter, but I'm not optimizing that hard.

Built this bad boy in a team comprised of 2, after countless test runs and adjustments and tearing through boxes of miscellaneous supplies.. it was complete.

This was for an engineering design course at my school, Hudson Valley Community College.
i can share another story if you like??!
About how long do u think it would move?
I am single parent of a 10th grader. She has been asked to build a mouse trap car and have this car go 6 meters!!!! I do not know anything about building project cars and how do we get to go 6 meters before stopping once released?
Can anyone please help with advice?
Please can you include parts to buy and images if possible as I am a visual person :)
Thanks
Stressed mum
