has anyone else made a catapult or trebuchet?
i made one this weekend that launches 80 feet. i'm aiming for 100 or more, so i still have a ways to go. but it is rather fun attacking the neighbors. i don't think the really mind. we put a golfball into my neighbor's across the street and three door's down's garden. but that was with pulling the arm by hand. we're limited as the the counterweight (it's for a competiton) ahh, the joys of siege warfare. i should get two catapults and have a war. hurl tomatos at each other from 80 feet away. that would be quite fun. this makes me wish i lived in the north. i could so pull it out for a snowball fight. imagine, hitting someone 80 feet away! the possibilities are endless... mmm... [evil smiley that doesnt' exist because such evil smiles have never before been seen] yea, my catapult is 75 cm tall. just wait till i build one 3 meters tall... then it's not so much as "lets attack the neighbors", but lets attack the neighboring counties. well, only if you live close to the county line. but still. i bet you with a 10 meter trebuchet i could attack my school, which is about a mile away. i wonder if that's illegal. oh well. i want to try a flaming tennis ball now, filled with gasoline. hmmmmm. |
