  • what are the sizes and materials that you used to build it. i would like to make one but don't know the right size of the materials

  • @375slash Is mostly wood, aluminium, polyester rope and some iron for the arrows and release mechanism. The construction it self is quite simpel. just make a square boks and drill holes for the rope, and remember to support the weight from tightening the rope with beams.

  • those mountains are beautiful. 

  • Can you explain your pin/ trigger system you're using?

  • I used some polyester rope, easy to get by and it is a bit flexible.

  • what material was used for the strings

  • is it a balista or a scorpion
