This post started out with three projects for building simple mousetraps from Lifehacker, the DIY section, such as "Make a DIY No-Kill Mousetrap with a Toilet Paper Roll," "Make a No-Kill Mousetrap with a Jar and a Nickel," and "Build a Better Mouse Trap with LEGO." (Check out the comments on this page -- not everyone agrees this mousetrap is better.) These are all very good, simple, and fun projects, but the other useful things you can build with LEGO won my write-in vote today.
This Lifehacker McGyver Challenge was to "hack something cool with LEGO pieces." Note that the McGyver series is written by fellow Google+ member, Walter Glenn. The mousetrap won this challenge, but the other entries are also notable.
