My bandsaw sits unplugged when the blade tension is released. Imagine my surprise when going to set up the bandsaw yesterday and seeing this:
Electric Mouse Trap.jpg
This is the third time a mouse has been found this way. For some reason they crawl in and on their way out their foot is on the hot side connection as they squeeze past the mounting hardware which is internally connected to ground.
When removing the an insulated glove is worn and a pair of pliers with insulated handles is used to remove them.
