About:
FYI, I bought the Dizzy Dunker based on your video. It's catching mice like crazy. They love the peanut butter. And, when I accidentally knocked my newly acquired Dunker onto my concrete floor and broke it, the company sent me a new one, no questions asked and no cost. Great product. Great customer service.
Quite generous of them... If I broke something I wouldn't go ask for another.
I bought 4 and gave them out to farmers for Christmas.
@@tpl608That’s incredibly thoughtful of you!
@@tpl608 did you badger them to wear gloves too?
I bought two of them and havent caught a mouse yet. I'm using peanut butter for bait.
That last mouse was thinking 'Please Mr. Custer I don't want to go.'
Kudos for actually figuring out a way to make the trap work.
Great modification Shawn... We will enlarge the plank as per your suggestion. Thanks 😉
A cylinder would work better than a flat plate. There are also rotary slip ring connectors available. Using a rotary slip ring means the wires to the sensor will never tangle. By using a rotary slip ring, the cylinder could be made to spin freely several times when triggered, ensuring the mouse will always be caught.
Or make it longer, but then it might bend under the weight of mice.
@@andymanaus1077would make it more expensive for maybe not that much gain if the wider plank works. Maybe just a little longer wires and have it flip 180° and not 90°. I’d try that before changing the design.
I'd recommend rounding the edges in like fusion 360 like large rounded lips that they can't grip on
Maybe have that plank twist 180° to ensure the mice can't hang on to the edge.
yeah, I was thinking spinning motor for a few seconds rather than this type (cheaper too) ... funny!
Rotating 180° may cause the wires to tangle which will decrease reliability, so a new design has to accommodate that. A slip-ring may be a good solution here.
@denismccluskey6657 Great Idea...👍 Will that.
If you coded the servo to go from one extreme (200ms) to the other (100ms), it could turn 180°, but only in one direction, which would probably be fine.
I was gonna say the same thing , maybe a add like a shacking feature so it goes back and foward a few times once the sensor trip
Make the "plank" a full cylinder and there would be nothing for the mice to hold onto.
Like older styles of this type of trap.
It's funny to me that people go through all the work to make some fancy electronic dunker that can't even come close to working as good as a simple dizzy dunker.
I wouldn't mess with nothing but the Dizzy Dunker.
Omg. I keep thinking its monday with these videos! :) I love the extra content Shawn! Great stuff!
Same here. "Where did my weekend go!?!"
Does the counting light use the moving platform itself as a signal to register that the mouse got dumped? Since they took so many tries to get the mice in, maybe the sensor counted 6 mice instead of just 2.
Good point
Genius fix on the fly! 👏👌
The mouse at the end did a little backflip. Lol
HAQHAHAHAHHAAHHAHHAHAHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH yah it did, thats hilarious! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH funniest thing in the world ever.
Clever ,using the tape 👍
Very novel "twist" on a mouse trap - Thanks - Cheers!
I prefer the low-tech mouse traps. Less points of failure, less expensive too.
Do you think you'd make a rat-sized Dizzy Dunker? I'd be interested in buying one.
It'll take a smart rat days or even weeks if it even decides too go in.
Cool trap, your pets are cute.
Thanks Shawn
Maybe designing the plank with downward sloping edges would be a better option??
I feel like the tape not only makes it harder to reach the edge, but makes the edge unstable which keeps them from hanging on to it
the walk the plank, the one that dips down works much better highly more effective
gotta have it do a full 360 degree twist, instead of just 90 degrees
Not with a standard servo motor.
Teeder todder fun mousetrap. Lol
"teeter totter" you plebe
But it isn’t Monday, its a Friday.mice must be working overtime.
Maybe if it spins a full 180 or even 360 vs 90 degrees they won't be able to adjust quickly enough.
I was thinking the exact same thing......plank not wide enough.
👍👍
Good work Crawdaddy.
Instead of a plank, should have used a tube.
i was thinking a light spray of oil on the plank may work as well
There should be two bolts because it will eventually come loose and slide from side to side
This needs to be tested with more mice and a second prototype.
I think the bottom half should be cylindrical so they can't hold on
Before watching wild testing, needs a wider paddle, plus more torque!
Your a smart guy Shaun, I know this because i thought make it wider straight away too.
His name is spelled Shawn
It is in the channel name
That pet mouse at the end almost held on. Smooth 1/2" dowels along the edges would probably be even better for making it difficult for mice to grab onto something.
i saw this one coming
Do you think the radial load on that servo is ok?
i really like the cow pet mouse, it's very pretty
Why is this kinda funny
lmao! I must be deranged laughing at this!
Pet mice PTSD alert. ;-)
Or they're accepting the training, the opportunity to evolve.
mice don't possess the part of the brain that lets them experience ptsd. but then again.. you think the plague is still a thing.
@@chubbrock659 Ha ha ha ha!
Gotta run. Make it a Great Night y'all.
Hairless mouse was going for the controls. Still not convinced Shawn isn't trying to produce the ubermaus, the rodent of the future. Mus artficium, tool using and ultimately using.
_"Gee, the thingy blinks at me that I should have 38 mice in the bucket, but it's empty!!"_
Shawn..... you have caught any "house mice" lately... did you get them to finally "move out"..??
👍🏻
You cant give mice a chance to think. Maybe it rotates to slow.
Interesting concept, entertaining vid.. I watched many Shawn Woods vids, I tried several home-made rat traps without success. Twin Home Experts are more deadly to rats :):)
👍🏻😎🇺🇸
Are you running our mice in your barn? I would have liked to see many more mice try out this trap.
Me 2.
Eh, it's cool but just an inferior variation of the walk the plank.
Co takhle dat si Twister? Ledove svezi TORNADO!
Disclaimer: I don't speak czech. It's a meme.
It’s like the inventor/ designer never ever tested it.🤔
Of course this stepper motor is not useful for that job.
Gg
I bought the Uhlik trap for $240 and aint trapped anything followed all the info and nothing. ucatch traps did better, now im stuck with this big a** trap good for nothing and lost money smdh
People always make mouse traps too complicated, this one is a big FAIL. You need to dispatch Deer Mice, they carry the HantaVirus! There is no such thing as native and non native species, it all depends on how far back you go. Because if you go back far enough humans aren't native to the America's either.
I totally agree. I'm not an ambientalist and I love when a mouse needs to be dispatched, but the argument of doing it if it's not a native species seems silly. I think that invasive mice have now enough predators and are not out of control.
F aĺl the bull. Just give me the Dizzy D.
As always Shawn, gloves Shawn, gloves. Protect yourself and your family
always you're shawns botfly, just a total parasite
As always, the crazy stalker comes out with her demands. 🤭
And a mask, googles, face shield, a full hazmat suit, and don’t forget to get plenty of vaccines. Oh and don’t forget to have a rescue team standing by, including a team of doctors, nurses, and a mobile operating room.
At least she helps the algorithm in Shawn's favor!
@@merlesgarage I will stick with the understanding that the plague and haunta virus are in his area and he has 4 very young kids. Your wilful stupidity ignores that.
guy spend months thinking about a mouse trap, is trash, 5 min and shawn fixes it
It was a prototype, not trash. Shawn tested and made improvements. I'm sure the inventor will make adjustments based on Shawn's testing. Even Shawn, with his vast experience with mouse traps, went through several prototypes before coming up with the final production version.
@@raysun2be yeah, the inventor probably didn't have a ton of mice to test it on... Could have made it all in an apartment with a 3d printer.
ohh dear, dont take a youtube comment so hard @@raysun2be
@@zoiuduuNo worries. I just thought "trash" was a bit harsh considering the effort the creator probably put into it. 😀 We are both entitled to our opinions. 😀
Cookies and Cream (my name for the last pet mouse) really didn't want to test the trap.
WHO ELSE IS WATCHING SHAWN ON THIS GOOD FRIDAY!
Do a wild card day!
Trap testing, doesn't matter witch trap!
Though keep it under the regulations.
with over billions of people on this earth, pretty sure there are many ambitions that have traps to test!
What do you mean “instead of killing it”? I thought you humanely dispose of them ?
He kills the non native and invasive species and lets the native ones live
Please go ahead and google "humanely dispose of an animal". Geez.
"humanely dispatch" is what he says... It's a friendly way of saying "ending it's life".
pretty sure simoneric knows this, he just forgot a smiley so you would know he was joking.
Fail. Needs work
Before watching the video I knew that this trap is crap because mice will not fall that easy. I wonder why the original "inventer" didn't think this through. Than why even bother? Do it right, or don't do it at all.
Embarrassing fail, surely they tested this,..?
DID test it ...& don't call him Shirley
